November 2021 - The Diary

My second episode of GUILT was screened early November, in which I play dodgy Property Developer Davie and had a couple of fab scenes and was just lovely to work with Mark Bonnar at long last. On the

BBC Iplayer now if you want to watch it on catch-up. Then it was back to producing duties with the first run of Davie Carswell's new play, THE TOMMY BURNS STORY which played for 4 nights at the home

of Glasgow Celtic FC in the club's Kerrydale suite to a sold out audience. I attended the brilliant opening night and huge thanks to everyone who came along and to all at Celtic for hosting the show (below).

The cast were amazing and we were honoured to have the Manager, Ange Postecoglou in attendance and a joy to meet him after the show backstage and thank you to him for his ongoing support of the play. I kept

up the riding lessons since I wrapped on 1815 and back to Busby Equitation Centre again this month and reunited with my trusty steed 'Captain' seen above! More auditions and booked another film for December

before that, however, we had a fabulous cast & crew screening and day out for new Britbox series CRIME in Glasgow, with a fun dinner with Irvine Welsh, Gavin Mitchell and Tam Dean Burn at Sarti's and then to

my favourite Scottish cinema The GFT for the screening. Lovely to catch up with the cast and crew and lots of old pals and thrilled to see the first few episodes of this dark, brilliant drama series, with Dougray

Scott in the lead role of 'Lennox' in brilliant form, pictured above! It was a brilliant late late night and just a great production to be a part of. The series is being released this month and you can watch it streaming

from November on Britbox UK. I play Miles Combe and had a lovely scene with the brilliant Angela Griffin, pictured below, in the series inspired by Irvine Welsh's novel of the same name. It is brilliant!

Finally this month we were delighted to raise a great sum of money from the programme sales from the play for The Celtic Foundation Charity, so thank you to everyone who donated. The show will be going

ahead again next summer in a Glasgow theatre, details to follow in due course. A top month with great company, projects now all coming out & a brilliant theatre run to boot and booked another trip South!!
