- V proud of this one Sweet Bobby is my new @tortoise podcast investigation into what’s likely to be Britain’s worst-ever catfishing case It’s the story of a woman scammed for more than 10 years... by someone she never expected Ep1 out now! #sweetbobby pod.fo/e/f32ae
- See you in court isn't much of a threat to a judge. "I'll see you in your workplace where you tend to be most of the time."SEE YOU IN COURT, THE SECURITY OF OUR NATION IS AT STAKE!
- Very excited to introduce #WhoTrolledAmber, a new 6-part series for @tortoise. It's my investigation into what happened to Amber Heard online. Was she the victim of an organised hate campaign? And if so, who was responsible? 1st 2 eps out on 27th Feb
- Extraordinary stat in @FT. Beijing is the world's most monitored city, with 470k cameras. London is 2nd, with 420k. Third place is Washington DC - with just 30,000 cameras. We're living in a surveillance duopoly.
- Can’t quite believe it but #SweetBobby is now the *Number 1* podcast in the USA 🇺🇸 Very proud of the whole team: @GaryJMarshall90, @claudiabromley, @basialcummings and everyone at @tortoise And of course @JustKirat - the star of the show.

- Fascinated by the timing on this story, especially given it was first reported.... in 2008 🤔Johnny Depp kindly donated entire salary to Heath Ledger's daughter 👇 virginradio.co.uk/entertainment/… #HeathLedger #JohnnyDeppfoxnews.comReport: Heath Ledger's Co-Stars Donate Film Earnings to His DaughterJohnny Depp, Jude Law and Colin Farrell have donated the money they made for completing Heath Ledger's final film role to the late actor's daughter Matilda, The Sun reports.
- In the wake of the @guardian's excellent investigation into the royals, I spoke to a former head of the civil service about how the Queen is funded. He told me the system was a "lie" cooked up by ministers and Buckingham Palace to "hoodwink the public". tortoisemedia.com/2021/02/12/hoo…
- Adam Waldman, Johnny Depp's lawyer, seems more comfortable posting my email to him online than answering my questions about his work for the Russian state 🤷♂️“You don’t need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows.” -Bob Dylan
- Hoaxed. The @guardian podcast of 2022. 🎉 @AlexiMostrous @tortoise @gemmanewby theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/2…
