I have a life-long fascination with the works of H.G. Wells, particularly his troubled film collaborations with Alexander Korda, reflected in my contributions to the Network DVD and Blu-ray releases of Things to Come (1936). This has led to a wider interest in 1930s British films, and in particular issues of preservation, availability, and – inevitably – copyright status. The social context of 1930s cinema overlaps somewhat with my work on the Home Front during the Second World War, via my books London Underground at War (2014) and City on Fire: Kingston upon Hull 1939–45 (2017). Tube Screen, an in-depth guide to the London Underground in film and television is next due to be published, followed by a definitive account of the production and history of Things to Come.
