I’d been waiting to see 500 Days of Summer for a couple of months before it eventually came out, after I saw a trailer for it online. So a couple of weeks ago (sorry!) I headed off to see it.
I was a bit disappointed when I came out. And a bit sad. It’s not that [...]

I really wanna go and see 500 Days of Summer when it comes out. I think I probably act a bit like the guy in it, and I totally fancy the girl in it too. And she seems like the kind of girl I always fall for. So all round good reasons to go and [...]

My latest series – Gary & Danielle’s Northern Exposure – is now available on the iPlayer – programme 1 went out last week, and I was really pleased with the feedback. The programme seems to be on series catch-up so will be available on the iPlayer until a week after all six episodes have transmitted. [...]

TV really sucks at the minute for me! Prison Break*, The Wire and The Shield have all finished for good, leaving me with a dearth of season passes on my Tivo. Anyone got any ideas for what could replace them in my televisual viewing? At the moment I’m starting to get into True Blood which [...]

So Northern Exposure starts filming next week. You have one more week to suggest where Gary & Danielle can visit on their trip to Northern Ireland!
To be honest, I can’t wait for filming, I feel like I haven’t been out on the road in ages, and although it’s really long hours, it is fun. We’re [...]

Yay for me! I found out a couple of weeks ago I’ve got another TV series commissioned. This one is COMPLETELY different to Northern Exposure, and it’s a kind of programme that the BBC haven’t tried before. So I’m excited about it, even though I know already it is going to be very, very hard [...]

Whilst in London, I struck a deal with my little sis. I would go and see the movie of her choice on the Friday night if we saw a movie of my choice on the Sunday night. So that explains why on Friday I found myself watching the latest Zac Efron film, 17 Again.
It’s a [...]

Anyways, it’s been hectic as I prepared for the launch of my new series, which I’ll be working on from now [...]

I am totally excited about seeing this movie. It’s a Swedish vampire film and has been getting great reviews, making it all the more annoying that it was actually on at the Belfast Film Festival on Saturday night, and I only found out about it yesterday.
I really hope it will be showing at a cinema [...]

Last week (bear with me, catching up!) I helped out at Do You Remember The First Time? A gig organised by Belfast City Council and broadcast live by ATL and recorded for TV (being broadcast this Tuesday, details at the end of the post).
The gig was held to celebrate the re-opening of the Ulster Hall [...]
