Mean comments on my on-screen appearance hurt. I’m a documentary maker, not a studio celebrity. I don’t have a hair & make-up Department, but a fold up brush and a power compact. I don’t have wardrobe, but £200 to buy multiples of one outfit to wear for 10 days. Context matters.

I’m an academic & I make tv programmes. I’ve been told the twain shouldn’t meet: ‘TV dumbs down’. Yesterday while filming I made one of the biggest academic breakthroughs of my career. It’s BECAUSE I was making TV, communicating, interacting, sharing & learning. It involves this.

You know what’s so great about being a 90s teenager? We did it all. All of it. But with no photographic evidence! Yeah baby. We straddled the pre- and post-digital ages! We are hardcore!

I don’t say this lightly. It is a huge honour that I’m treated so well on Twitter and social media. I know those might be my last words (😬) but I’m very grateful to all those I see again and again supporting me, reaching out & getting the real Nina. You’re all fab. Thank you x

Freaked out when my son shouted: “Mummy!!! The toilet is smoking...” “What has he done?” I thought as I ran through. “Has he put burning paper down there? Set fire to something? Experimented with chemicals again?” No. He’d done this......

My 8-year-old daughter today: ‘Me and my friends have stopped using the word #Brexit . Instead we call it ‘white noise’. Because you know that horrid scratchy sound you get between radio signals. That’s what it all sounds like’ From the mouth of babes.....

Can’t take it for the night. First election I won’t watch through. My Polish mum is silenced with sadness. I’m just going to say that I love those people who still believe in goodness, kindness, selflessness. I know you’re there. I’m just shocked that I’ve misjudged so completely

Some people don’t like this tweet. So I’m retweeting it.... because #BorisJohnson is shameful.

Have spent an hour on the phone to Glasgow police giving a statement against an individual who sent myself & others explicit unsolicited images. Spent all today upset about Zouma’s animal cruelty. Its one of those days I’m devastated by the ugly side of humans. Send me some light

I have a big, bursting brain that occasionally can be brilliant and often can be a burden. I have a heart that does the same. It makes every day feel heavy yet exhilarating, happy but exhausting. I try to share the bits I have because we only get one innings. I’ll be gone one day

During lockdown, especially when I was suffering from the virus, I thought I’d never make TV again. I was fine with that - time for other voices & views. But I’m grateful & happy to be back doing a thing I love. The me you see is me through & through. #RaidersOfTheLostPast coming

Sorry if I’ve not been on here much. It’s not been so easy since I felt the rough end of twitter a while ago & the atmosphere over the election felt pretty toxic. But I am still here doing what I do & will share. Love to all of my followers & here’s a Botticelli for you ❤️

It’s #Epiphany so I’m sharing my favourite image of the Three Kings, from the early 8th-century carved whalebone Franks Casket. The only one I know of where a duck leads the way, the star is a wheel & Odin’s knot hides in the corner. The artist has included runes to spell MAGI.

What a time to be British?!? When you put this man in charge, and present him and his over privileged chums with extreme challenges, what did you expect? To the rest of the world.... I’m sorry. The UK don’t know their arse from their elbow right now.

Her image has been in our purses and pockets, on every letter and postcard, for the our whole lives. She has been a constant. This is destabilising and historic. I’m sure I’m not alone in feeling a sense of loss and sadness. #RIPQueenElizabeth
