I have no... I just have no idea.

I mean, it's such an amazing feeling that we even made the film and so special to have gone through this with my son.

You know, he's always written all of his life.

I mean, our fridge is still covered in poetry that he wrote when he was seven or eight years old.

declared that he was thinking about maybe writing scripts.

And he got a place on a film writing course at the National Film and Television School and was asked to write a screenplay.

Kate Winslet (Christmas Special)

And he remembers thinking, my God, we're all here because we all somehow came from this one woman.

Kate Winslet (Christmas Special)

It was such an... If I never get to do it again, I just feel so proud, actually, that in this 50th year of my life, when it is much harder, I think, for actresses to transition into directing than it is for our male counterparts, I just feel really, really proud that we've done it and we're very proud of the film.

Off Menu with Ed Gamble and James Acaster
