'Official' TV appearance #3

I made my third official TV appearance on Friday night's Moviejuice.  Check it out (available for a month).  I say 'official' because when I was about 6 years old in primary school, the headmaster took our class on a trip to visit Hercules the bear - a trained bear who had appeared in film and TV as a career.  When we visited him there was a Japanese TV crew doing a feature on him, so I probably unwittingly appeared on Japanese TV about 16 years ago, clapping a bear, eyes wide with wonder and the unrelenting enthusiasm of youth.  Come to think of it, I don't remember signing a release...

Anyway, this 'official' TV appearance was to do a mini review on Hunky Dory, which I've also written up a review for here.  The second time I said a bit about Casablanca - a more substantial list of my thoughts on this incredible film can be read here.  My first appreance was to do a mini review of W.E. which warranted a measly one star in my eyes - my full review can be read here.

Here's a still from the show, I'll see if I can find a picture of me with Hercules too...

Me on TV!



I decided to take my film reviewing talents to the TV!  I did a vox pop length review of W.E. for a show called Moviejuice and it was broadcast through STV on Friday night.  You can find the video on the STV Player (for another 27 days).  You'll see an extremely nervous me at about 9 minutes in.  The full-length written review is on this blog and offers a slightly more comprehensive overview of the film to say the least!  I was going to review Coriolanus, which I loved, but no-one was doing W.E so the producers got me to rate that instead.  One star!  I just hope Madonna isn't coming after me now...
