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?…)
