I love the Christmas lights in Sheffield this year.

Especially the trees at the top of Fargate and in Leah’s Yard.

A picture from my run pitstop in Sheffield General Cemetery yesterday.

I think that’s the Royal Hallamshire Hospital peeking out from the foliage.

Over the last two decades, Warp Films have won bucketloads of critical acclaim and multiple awards, but their dark, gritty stories have remained cult hits.

Their latest, Adolescence, has now been seen by over 100 million people worldwide and is currently top of the Netflix charts in 80 countries.
