Hilary Mantel and Mark Rylance have broken my heart. As Cromwell fell so did my tears - and I doubt I’m alone. What a measured, beautiful dance of humanity in all its nakedness; love; ambition; envy & hate the cast and crew of #WolfHall have led us through. Matchless work. Brava!

I am enormously grateful and proud to have been awarded a DSO in the King’s New Year’s Honours list. Commanding on operations, and having the chance to serve at that level, is hugely rewarding and I would do it again given the chance. This honour is a high watermark. It is
