Welcome to the 2023 freshly updated  website.

2o23 will mark sixty years since Paddy joined the film industry and set off on a career which has found him shooting in no fewer than 30 countries and working with many major figures of the cinema.  Recent years have seen a return to his writing roots with numerous magazine articles and several books to his credit.  Most notable of these are two novels, hybrid thrillers set in the crazy world of film production, but which mercilessly evaluate the real evidence in the case of the Lockerbie bombing, identifying those actually responsible for the attack and those who covered up the truth behind its cause.  This saga about a writing and selling a film script could well become a movie or a min-series itself.  Non-fiction projects continue; another novel on filmmaking is underway, while a third Lockerbie title awaits future developments, exposures and admissions in the case itself.
