Off to Essex this month to shoot for a week on another Bollywood movie, entitled UMBARO, with a stellar cast and an absolutely brilliant experience. All night shoots in a fab location with a great team
in which I play a Hotel Manager and got to speak a bit of Gujurati at the end of the film! Loved working on this and to be back on night shoots again. Arduous but brilliant and really enjoyed the discipline of the work on this one and was a joy to be directed by Abhishek Shah, pictured below.
Loved working with this cast and spent a lovely week in Essex shooting long hours and playing cricket in the grounds with the crew. A fab experience all round, then straight back to Greenock to restart filming
on last month's film, ANOTHER LOVE STORY the very next day! Lots of driving all month on various shoots and travelled the length and breadth of the country working, which was great. Big fun on this one
in which I play a Studio Manager in scenes with Jiya Shankar (pictured above) who was delightful to work with and did a nice job of this one. Again, lovely cast and crew and great food on this set! Great
to work with my old mate Perry Costello again on this and the photo above is courtesy of Perry! Back to the television studio for the rest of the month. Took a break to go to the Celtic match with the brilliant Tony Curran and watch a fab 3-2 victory over St Mirren and to watch the league trophy presentation
afterwards. A superb day and huge thanks to Mr C for the ticket! Great to meet up with former Celtic legend Joe Miller afterwards in Glasgow West End too (pictured below)! Mat was the busiest month
of the year so far and wrapped on the TV show in the final week, before shooting a lovely commercial for Arran Aromatics at the beautiful Mar Hall Golf & Spa Resort. Again a fun job with just lovely people and a fab cast (pictured below) in which I play a proud father at his daughter's wedding. Bit of a different
role for me, but great fun and the commercial will be broadcast on STV later in the year. Am very thankful to everyone I worked with and casters this month, it was a total blast!
