Very little blog activity here this week (well, none as a matter of fact) but that is down to a rare activity of mine called hard work. It's been a tightly packed week of early morning gym sessions then castings and/or script editing in sunny Soho Square. Then after that it's been straight home, dinner, then three or four hours of writing up the editing in the office at home. Luckily I love early mornings and don't need too much sleep (five hours is enough for me) so this kind of schedule suits me down to the ground; strange boy aren't I? Driving home on this evening I got a great phone call from my producer, we had offered one of the regular characters to a big comedy name (I don't mean "Norris" or "Gaylord", I mean a very famous comedian/comedy actor) and we got him! The show fits into his schedule and he wants to do it! Now… here's the thing; I really have no idea if I can say who this person is right now. I also realise that only about 9 people read this blog so I'm probably making a mountain out of a mole hill but still I don't want to piss anybody off unduly (not like me…). Maybe a tiny clue-ette as to this person's identity…. Well, he - no, I'd better check on Monday to make sure he has actually signed the contract! Come back next week and I'll tell you then. (What's that old joke again, "how do you keep an idiot in suspense?…)
