Michael Cormac "Mike" Newell (born 28 March 1942) is an English director and producer of motion pictures for film and television. Newell won the 1994 BAFTA Award for Best Direction for Four Weddings and a Funeral.
Newell was born in St Albans, Hertfordshire, the son of amateur actors. Newell was educated at St Albans School and Magdalene College, Cambridge. He then attended a three-year training course at Granada Television, with the intention of entering the theatre.
Newell directed various British TV shows from the 1960s onwards (such as Spindoe (1968), credited as Cormac Newell, and Big Breadwinner Hog). However, he eventually graduated into film direction.
His first film was The Man in the Iron Mask (1977), made for TV. His first critically acclaimed movie was Bad Blood (1982), concerning the 1941 manhunt for the New Zealand mass-killer, Stan Graham, played by Jack Thompson. This was followed by Dance with a Stranger (1985), a biographical drama starring Miranda Richardson as Ruth Ellis, the last woman to be hanged in Great Britain. For his directing efforts, Newell won the Award of the Youth at the 1985 Cannes Film Festival.

Extract from a longer interview with Harry Potter actor Daniel Radcliffe, he speaks about working with Mike Newell on 'Harry Potter and The Goblet of Fire'.
The second edition of our 'Snods Meets' series sees the Everton ambassador chat to former team-mate Mike Newell on crossing the Red/Blue divide, his current work with Accrington Stanley and how he made it as a footballer.
As part of the Ultimate Edition of Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, exclusive to SnitchSeeker.com
From BBC Website,Newell said: "My apology to Amy Rayner, and to anyone I've offended, is unreserved. I was out of order and she has accepted it. "As far as I'm concerned, the matter is closed," the Luton manager added. Newell has kept his job but has been severely reprimanded by the club. He was asked to explain his attack on Tomlins and a statement from Luton said: "Any repetition of such conduct will not be tolerated." Newell apologised to the board and assured them there will be no repeat. The Football Association has said it will look into Newell's comments, which he made in his post-match press conference at Kenilworth Road. Newell contacted Rayner personally to apologise for his outburst, but still faced a meeting with the Luton board.

There's an astronaut missing his children tonight
sitting in his silver machinery.
He's in love with the world and stunned by her size.
From where he sits she looks mostly empty.
From here on the ground I know how he feels.
The curve of the world beneath me
seems impossibly large when I think of where you are,
how I can sing my heart out and you won't hear me.
If I put my hand up and blow a kiss,
it'll never make it to you.
It'll go down over Kansas like Icarus,
sink like Amelia's last SOS.
I could drive to the divide
where rains run to your side or mine,
put a bottle with a note in a river running to your coast
asking you how the world got so wide.
If I put my hand up and blow a kiss,
it'll never make it to you.
It'll go down over Kansas like Icarus,
