We went up to Manchester yesterday to attend the 28th FFF… Mr Steve Green was enlisted to interview both Jenny Hanley and Jonathan Rigby on stage, and we later filmed short interviews with both in the bar, which will be available on YouTube quite soon. Below are shots of Steve with his two interview subjects.
Long time no see, again. Lots of things have been happening, though, even if they haven’t necessarily happened in the order I’d planned. (For instance, the long-mooted Weekly Webcomics idea didn’t get going. Yet.)
Having assembled a reasonably decent set of film gear in recent months, Steve and I have been doing a series of short items for the film show on You can see one (and soon more) of these items in the Film/Video part of my revamped but under construction portfolio.

It’s been getting better and better lately—I watched eps 19-20 last night. Also enjoying the Nikita reboot, and again, it’s a ‘leave your brain at the door’ deal, but I don’t have a problem with that. Maggie Q is great and Xander Berkeley is always fun to watch. What has not grabbed me, although I’ve only watched two (or is it three?) eps, is season two of The Walking Dead. Yeah, yeah, season one was quite good.
