It was just one of those weird things that got under my skin and I could hear the film in my head and I knew how it should sound.
My agent got in touch with me and said, ‘There’s this movie Wild Mountain Thyme and they’re starting to think about a composer, and what do you know about it?’
And I said, ‘Well, I know about it because my husband’s in it.’
[laughs] He was shooting it, so I knew about it and then I’d read the script and completely fell for it in a really big way.
