Kate Beckinsale Instagram – Here is a photo just after I presented my stepdad with the lifetime achievement Alan Parker Special Award BAFTA for his incredible work as a director in television from Colin Welland’s “Leeds United!” about the first all female strike in the clothing trade ,”Roll on Four o clock “, the documentary “The Body” with music by Roger Waters and commentary by the poet Adrian Mitchell , the first seven episodes of the ground breaking “Tomorrow’s World”to Cracker,Between the lines, Inspector Morse, King of the Ghetto starring a very young and very brilliant Tim Roth,A Touch of Frost ,the first and only Edward Bond play ever written for television starring Bernard Hill and the late , mesmerising Charlotte Coleman and countless others . Today BAFTA told me they ‘could not guarantee’ he would be included in their “in memoriam” tribute , to honour the industry members we have lost . So a man dead less than a week somehow has to audition in front of a committee after a decades long career (in which he has been awarded from said organisation the highest accolade they have ) to decide IF his death is worth mentioning . If his work, his life ,his craft ,his mentoring , his heart and soul are worthy of a mention that he is gone . That , that has broken my heart all over again . I am paralysed ,sick and sickened and I will honour him and his work every day of my life . ***Oh and while I am at it, yes it is my mum briefly in the Netflix show Fool me Once, for those who asked . And she has been gracefully and quietly dealing with stage four cancer for the last six years and just lost her husband so thanks again , BAFTA for your horribly cold email.
