Filming has just wrapped on THIS IS GOING TO HURT, coming to a BBC or AMC near you. Here’s a picture of Ben Whishaw being amazing in it.
THANK YOU JACINDA ARDERN YOU’VE ALWAYS BEEN MY FAVOURITE

I think today may be the day our village discover that we’re gay.
May I unhumbly suggest that this would make an excellent yet panicked gift that will arrive in time for Christmas.
I’ve had an incredible week in glorious Iceland, and they’ve turned the lights on for my last night here. I realise this makes me someone who shares their holiday snaps but, bloody hell, what a trick for the sky to pull. A country whose pictures need no filter.
Slightly insulting that no one’s released a version of THIS IS GOING TO HURT with *my* face on. Anyway, you can now buy a Ben-Whishaw-themed copy. Includes a brand new introduction from me. Here’s a picture of my dog to sweeten the deal.
Yeah whatever, fortune cookie.
Unboxing video.
Reading my favourite book on the train. Why, yes, it IS out today – thanks for asking!
I’ve been alerted to the fact that there is another children’s book with a similar title to KAY’S MARVELLOUS MEDICINE. I apologise to this “Roald Dahl” and wish him all the best with his writing.
DOG PHOTO FOR THE LIKES
Please share, because I have used up all the advertising budget on this graphic design.
I’m performing THIS IS GOING TO HURT in London’s glorious West End tonight, tomorrow and Saturday. Tickets available tonight, to a lesser extent tomorrow, and barely on Saturday. Garrick Theatre. Tickets from £20. Wear a mask, obviously. Tickets plus dates in other places on my website. I can trust you to find that, right?
Come to my tour or I’ll have no option but to kidnap a member of your family.
I am VERY EXCITED to announce my next kids’ book. It’s called KAY’S MARVELLOUS MEDICINE: A Gross and Gruesome History of the Human Body, it’s out in September and you can pre-order NOW! Link in bio unless I’ve messed it up.
That’s better, but I *did* say number one please. Less than quid.
Not a #ad – just a plug for a brilliant local business who delivered us a lovely lunch today @dambrosifinefoods
I’m THRILLED to reveal the cover of the most disgusting children’s book of the year… KAY’S MARVELLOUS MEDICINE – a gross and gruesome history of the human body. Out on 30th Sept – link in bio, or head to your lovely local bookshop!
AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND. Due to incredible (baffling) demand, I’ve added in as many extra performances of THIS IS GOING TO HURT as possible during my trip. I realise there are lots of places I’m not getting to, so I promise I’ll be back soon to fill in the gaps. Link in Google.
Are you aged 3-6? You might like AMY GETS EATEN, the first picture book from me & Henry Paker. It’s about a piece of sweetcorn going on a funny/squelchy/anatomically-accurate adventure through the body. (Adults might learn stuff too tbh.) Drops April 27th. Pre-order it wherever you buy books.
#WorldBookDay is two weeks away, but the 15 fantastic £1/€1.50 books are out today. I’m proud that KAY’S BRILLIANT BRAINS by me & @henrypaker is one of them. MILLIONS of free book tokens will be distributed to kids, to be exchanged for any of them from any bookshop or loads of supermarkets. Or if you’re not in the free-book-token demographic, you can buy a copy from your nearest bookshop or website.
