Or is there a better way to do this? You appear to be on the right track. Is there a better way? It depends a bit on your application; however, model_list = ModelName.objects.filter(response=response_obj) might be slightly cleaner - it returns an empty list if there are no models for a response, rather than the 404 exception that your approach will yield (plus, it does it in a single query, rather than two queries) > Anyway thanks so much for your help, I've got it working now.
