HAPPY NEW 2012!!!

Happy New Year!! I kicked off 2012 by appearing in the first TV Ad of the year - filmed on West Wittering beach West Sussex the ad is for The SUN (don't ask!) If you look closely you will see me cunningly disguised as a hairdresser in the Red Jacket (with the hair tied back looking more like Wagner than Billy!) We had 2 days filming in mid December running IN the freezing waters of the Channel! Great fun!

First Advert of 2012

I've just spent the weekend on the beach at West Wittering, Sussex, running(!) along the sand and in the sea!!! All for a new advert for The SUN (sometimes fate just laughs at my pet hates!!) I played a very camp hairdresser and it will be shown as the first ad of 2012, incorporating the Olympics with every face of the Great British Nation! The cast, crew and extras were brilliant - so friendly - and what they say about film location catering is absolutely 100% true - Delicious!! In spite of the exercise I've gained a pound or two!!

KEEP CALM??????

Are you sick of seeing these signs everywhere? I got fed up with them and decided to make one of my own!!

The WEAKEST LINK

Well, here we are in JOJOBA! (In Glasgow that's the month before November!) The BBC phoned on Friday to tell me that "my" episode of The WEAKEST LINK would be shown this Thursday 27th on BBC2 at 14:15 or 2:15pm in old money! I am shiting myself 'cos ah cannae remember how it went!!!!
