Mad Men star Alison Brie and The White Lotus hunk Jake Lacy enjoy an animated chat on the Gold Coast while filming Apples Never Fall He's a skilful writer, and pulls off the metaphor of the castle pretty well. It's supposed to be safe and protected, like a family. But really it's threatened - not just from the outside, but the inside, too. His brother Thomas dies in a horrific accident. His brother Richard develops a terrible disease. The Music Room, he tells me, "is about the idea of loss in the world, life being full of lots of love and wonder and beauty, but also loss and sorrow and pain".

In particular its prevalence in some areas was seen as one cause of “low demand” or weakly functioning housing markets. The Labour government’s “ Housing Market Renewal” programme, which ran from 2002-2011, assumed that some areas were unattractive to aspirational people because of a “monolithic” supply of pre-1919 terraced houses. This was despite the fact that in the same period in London and elsewhere such houses were highly sought after and rising in value. The programme may have funded more refurbishment than demolition overall, but more clearance of terraces was mooted and carried out than at any time since the 1970s.

He didn't show his family the manuscript until he'd finished it. "I think if I'd shown it to them early, and any of them had been unhappy in any way, that would have stopped me." It's always hard to write about your family, because everybody's version of the truth is different - it seems unfair that the writer's version should be the one everybody sees - and, eventually, believes. But Fiennes has done this with tremendous sensitivity. His parents' reaction was everything he hoped for. "They feel lifted up by it," he says. I thought: what do I care about? And it was Richard. And our childhood, and my mum and dad, and the way they looked after Richard, and my feelings for the house. And I'd been embarrassed about that, because it was such a big pile. But I didn't think I could go on being a writer and ignore it. Richard was so amazing. You think, when somebody dies you're going to remember everything. And, in fact, things fade, things start to disappear. I felt that when I was trying to remember Richard. So I started writing things down."Many proposals for demolition faced tough opposition from those who didn’t wish to be rehoused or didn’t share the view that their homes were somehow terminally deficient. Responding to some of the criticisms of the initiative, but also no doubt with an eye to reducing public spending, the programme was scrapped by the last coalition government.
