Paul was one of our most talented and lovely actors. Having worked with him in The Audience, I watched him whenever I could. His talent was quite outrageous really. Funny, witty and so bloody clever, with his heart so much in the right place. I am sure you would all join in sending his family the very best wishes. xx Paul xx
Hello Lovely Peeps.
On this day that launches La Temlanza into the ether and onto our screens, I have a completely different issue I want to mention. Political. I never thought I would ever endorse Iain Duncan Smith in any way, shape or form, but when I read this morning his quote about wearing China's sanction like a Badge of Honour, I was actually moved. This is a man who has ruined the welfare system in my country. Made it harder for so many and has exaggerated the line between the haves and have-nots so starkly, he generally makes my skin crawl. However his stance against China for their treatment of the Uyghurs has been strong and outspoken. I congratulate him.
Hi All, I just wanted to let you know that someone is pretending to be me on Instagram. Whoever it is has been private messaging people. I don't private message, I haven't and won't private message anyone. That doesn't mean you can't message me. Truth is tho', I probably won't respond. I think it's best to keep at arms length, which I am sure you all understand. Thank you for that understanding.
Hello Peeps,
Just wanted to congratulate the short film teams I was lucky enough to work with recently. The Sea Dragon has got an entry into the Cleveland Film Festival, Ciff45, which is no small feat. Well done them, and fingers crossed it is the first of many. And Hunting Bears is nearly ready to be out there too, after only a month. Incredible hard work. Short films are such an important part of our industry. Bringing up and comers a real chance to flex their muscles.
Vaccination done. I urge one and all to get your shots. We need a base where we can at lest start to head back into the world as we used to know it. A place where we can meet up with friends and family, go to work and stop for a chat at the post office. These various vaccines give us at least a fighting chance of that. Hooray, and congratulations to those who have come up with goods!
On a separate issue, where does Piers Morgan get off being such a pillock? Somehow he feels he is able to be rude about someone with absolutely no recourse for his horrible actions. I don't watch him on TV if I can possibly help it, (The same is probably true the other way round too, so fair's fair) but I saw the clip of him walking off the set this morning. What an arse.
