Demolition Day

I’ve come back from my first bit of filming for my new job. Because it’s such a big and potentially complicated programme, we had to film a pilot before the series starts. I am presenting it with the lovely Ed Sanders. The series starts filming at the middle of September until the beginning of November [...]

Paul/Faul

I can’t keep it a secret any more… This is my favourite place to be right now… I absolutely love it beyond words…

New Job

My new job is going to be filming 4 days a week for 8 weeks… in Norfolk. Fine. Except, of course, as you know, I’m a single mother and Mo starts his brand new school 6 days before my first filming day. His dad is currently available to stay for the last 5 weeks of [...]

Connection?

So you want to have an Elvis impersonator, but your venue has low ceilings? Worry no longer. Interesting. September 11th 1609 – Henry Hudson discovers Manhattan island September 11th 1922- British mandate of Palestine begins September 11th 1966 – Paul McCartney dies and is replaced by a look-alike… Any connection?

He Needs Me

I’m on my own tonight- Mo’s at his dad’s, Brian is on a plane… I decided to rent a DVD… The other night I had rented Love Liza. I like Phillip Seymour Hoffman and thought ‘Love Liza’ was OK – PSH, however, was excellent (of course). In the extras I saw a trailer for Punch [...]

Fair And Balanced

So all of you in the UK have probably not heard of Al Franken. He’s an American satirist/comedian who gained national fame in the US by appearing on the early (good) Saturday Night Live programmes. He is currently being sued by Fox News for using the phrase ‘fair and balanced’ in the title of his [...]

New Job

I have to worry no more, well at least for a few months… I’ve just been offered the job I screentested for on Monday. Joy! It’ll be filming over the autumn and on air maybe January, Channel 4, Monday nights, 8pm. Yay! Is it me or are there just some really *very* odd people in [...]

Screentest

I’ve got a screentest today. Send me good vibes, everyone! I could really use a new job now! *^_^*

What Religion Are You?

Don’t know what faith you are? Try Belief-O-Matic. My top 4 were : 1. Unitarian Universalism 2. Liberal Quakers 3. Thereavada Buddhism 4. Secular Humanism As far as I can tell the Unitarian Universalists are kinda just… anything. And Liberal Quaker? Cool. I like oatmeal.

Demolition Day

I’m pleased. I’ve got a call back for the Anglia TV job I screentested for the other week. I’m actually shocked. I was feeling so crap, exhausted and stressed around the time I did it AND I had gone to Manc without ANY make-up or hair styling equipment. I flew to Norwich from manc and [...]

Decorating

A couple weeks ago I mentioned I was stripping the dark green paint off my bathroom floor. I’ve now started sanding. It’s looking fab!!!! Here are three pictures. The first I posted a couple weeks ago. It shows the dark green paint and the bathroom’s half stripped. The second I just took. The bathroom is [...]
