April 2022 - The Diary

April saw the eventual release of feature film 83 on Netflix! It is streaming now if you want to give it a watch! In Hindi and English, and starring the brilliant Ranveer Singh as the famed skipper, Kapil Dev.

Following on from last month's announcement, we are delighted to announce that last year's smash hit show THE TOMMY BURNS Story will be back, at the wonderful KING'S THEATRE in Glasgow from


 the 7th - 9th of July 2022 and tickets are now on sale from the King's ATG box office. Get them quick as this show sold out  very quickly last time and can't wait to see the show again in this wonderful place!


Off to Leeds again this month for the first COLOPLAST UK live roleplay event with the lovely team above and our first gig for over two years due to the pandemic. Hopefully we have more events now in


the diary for this year! To Ayrshire next for costume fittings and rehearsals for my next short film, titled HAWKER, set in WW1 in the Royal Flying Corps, pictured above on the brilliant set. More NHS work this month too and delighted to see the music video CROWS released and entered into film festivals


and love this retro 60's poster that has been issued for our short film. A great shoot and song and hope it will continue to garner more awards. And another short film, the eagerly anticipated 1815 had it's first


screening at the GFT this month for the cast and crew and am blown away by how well made this little low budget film is. The acting, direction & cinematography are wonderful and I feel very lucky to be


the villain of the piece! The film is now touring the world in various festivals and will keep you posted as this really deserves success and to be expanded into a feature length movie. There was more roleplay
work this month with Blue Beetle for DEMATIC, which was great and nice to work with Graham again.


On the 7th of April WHY ME? finally was broadcast on the Sky Arts channel to a great reception and was brilliant to see. Great comedic performances all round and is now available streaming on NOW TV


and was produced by DBK Studios and Sky Studios as part of their Unearthed Narratives series. You can check out all 5 of their short films now also streaming on the same site. Delighted to be asked by Sara 


Gatland, with whom I have worked before, to come to a lovely sunny Broughty Ferry to shoot her musical short film, THE SELKIE'S SONG as a cruel old Fisherman harbouring a dark secret. Loved working on 


this one and really enjoyed the experience. Unfortunately I succumbed to the dreaded Covid 19 after this shoot, causing me to have to pull out of HAWKER and was seriously floored by the illness for two weeks.


Once recovered I was delighted to be invited along to my old pal Scott Kyle's touring play, the very moving and important ONE MISSISSIPPI in Easterhouse's Platform Theatre and great to catch up with Scott after the show. The play is touring venues in Central Scotland now and should not be missed!
