It’s A Witch Hunt
This whole BBC/Queen/Fakery/Blahblahblah thing… From Broadcast Blogs: Bless Me Father For I Have Sinned It’s been a long time since my last confession but I fear my editorial judgement might have lapsed. I have, on more than one occasion, used cut-aways that misrepresented the facts. I’ve included shots of presenters looking interested when they evidently [...]

Movie Mash-up
Yesterday the winner of MySpace’s MovieMash-up competition was announced- Vito Rocco. He’s won the chance to direct a feature film. His winning film is here. Two people I’ve been working with for the past couple years were part of the judging panel. Andrew Macdonald was the producer of ‘Sunshine’ and one of my very favourite [...]
Lovely Widget
I’m just seeing how this looks and works here. I’ve sent it out via Facebook already, but want to see how it looks here…
They Say It’s Your Birthday
Mark Neonbubble just reminded me of a year ago tomorrow when I asked for my Wikipedia page to be first created, then defiled as a birthday pressie. At one point it read: Gia (born July 11) is neither Italian, Serbian or English – she’s a Minnesotan (short in stature, but loud, very loud) who came [...]
This Week’s New Statesman
This week, both Brian and I have articles about nuclear power in the ‘New Statesman‘. Brian’s is about the immorality of energy conservation and mine is about the PR issues the nuclear industry needs to deal with. You can download the PDF from the New Statesman’s site.
Stephen Fry Facebook Sensation
So, the other day I became Stephen Fry’s friend on Facebook. I don’t know why I requested a friendship… I mean, I’ve been denying friendships to people I don’t actually know – online or in person – so why I thought he’d approve mine, I don’t know. Still, his approving my friendship is just another [...]
Official: Redheads Have More Fun
I first coloured my hair when I was 13 years old, because I desperately wanted to be a redhead. Since then my hair has been every shade of red imaginable… Copper: Auburn: Tangerine: Tangerine 2: Rustic Red: Pillarbox: Coloured red hair requires a lot of upkeep as it fades very quickly. During my ‘tangerine’ phase [...]
Hallam Foe
I just got back from another screening of Hallam Foe. It was even better the second time ’round. Please. Please please please please. PLEEEEEAAASE go see Hallam Foe in the cinema. It really is just one of the most moving and beautiful films I’ve seen in a very long time. And more perfectly British (Scottish) [...]
Fantastic Four Premiere
I just got in from the Rise of the Silver Surfer premiere. I unexpectedly got some tickets for it today when I was at a meeting at Fox. I took my son who *loves* the first film and was very keen to try and meet each of the actors. I said that might be difficult, [...]
A New Reel
I’ve just cut a new reel… What do you think? Too long? Too short? Too… something? I had to add Yoko at the end. :)
BBC Goatse
Many of you will have seen this by now. I just have to say: tv 0, internets 1 The person who drew it came from here, natch.
Lord Vader, Rise.
I’d thoroughly recommend the Star Wars Exhibition in London. We had an excellent time… I want to go back.
Sunshine And CERN
OK. A couple exciting things. First things first, as all of you Sunshine fans will have heard by now, the film is being released in the US and Canada on the 20th of July! Yes! Finally. I’m soooooo very excited. I’m hoping to be in the States then, too, so I’ll be able to go [...]
