Continuing our campaign for #StopHS2 & #HS2Rebellion we are posting a series of short films profiling the extremely brave and committed #treeprotectors & #ecowarriors at Denham Ford environmental protection camp in the Colne Valley, West London, which we filmed back in the summer of 2020 in the UK.
HS2 is a rail project (given approval by Boris Johnson’s cabinet) that in its 120 year lifetime won't ever be carbon neutral and has to date decimated over 116 hectares of trees - the equivalent of around 290 football fields. Around 15 hectares of that is believed to be around 108 ancient woodlands that have either already been decimated or are about to be. It has been billed as the “biggest deforestation project in the UK since World War I” by conservationist @chrisgpackham2 This really is the UK’s #Amazon.
Many of the protectors living and visiting Denham camp are young climate activists – those who will be most affected by the climate crisis to come. They really are living on the #climatefrontline in the UK.
Next up is “Squid” who we met living at #DenhamProtectionCamp protecting the trees under threat there, and trying to live in a sustainable more eco-friendly way.
They are standing up for the trees – will you stand up too? #standforthetrees

The crimes of serial killer Stephen Port are examined in this powerful factual-drama, #FourLives, featuring me alongside @sheridansmithster. Airs on BBC One over three consecutive nights, from 9pm on Monday 3 January.

On a sadder note, the #BBC drama series #FourLives documenting the tragic deaths of Anthony Walgate, Gabriel Kovari, Daniel Whitworth & Jack Taylor at the hands of the #grindrkiller #StephenPort has finally aired in the UK (3 Jan 21:00 BBC One). Prepare to be outraged at the sheer ineptitude & incompetence of Barking Police as they failed to link the deaths.
The findings of the inquest (as we discovered in our BBC Current Affairs documentary) were that had the police done a proper investigation of the first death, 3 more lives could have been saved – not “probably,” but in Sharron Ward's opinion – definitely. Sharron Ward was the journalist who sat for 8 long harrowing weeks at the Old Bailey (sitting unnervingly close to the defendant Stephen Port), listening to every gruesome detail & documenting all the evidence presented for our BBC3 documentaries that unpicked how the police failed to properly investigate each of the deaths in turn. The films took several months to make.
You can see the films - How the Police Missed the Grindr Killer & How I Discovered a Serial Murderer on my youtube channel Katalyst Productions. Just watching the drama trailer is enough to bring it all back.
The film reveals how Sarah Sak, Donna & Jenny Taylor, John Pape and Mandy & Adam Whitworth were forced to battle the Met to get answers & how in the end they were left to do their own detective work.
Please watch the drama series on #BBCiPlayer & then watch the blow by blow factual account of how these poor families had to go through the heartbreak first of having their loved ones taken away so cruelly, but then having the police block them at every turn when they tried to get their deaths investigated and taken seriously.
My heart as always goes out to the families. Pictured here is Donna Taylor, brother of Jack Taylor who set about investigating the case, along with Sarah Sak who also first raised the alarm & all of the family members & friends - John Pape, & Mandy Whitworth who never gave up asking questions.
May they now rest in peace. 🙏
