Made a few movies, filmed a load of other stuff, likes Star Wars a bit, that sort of thing.

A (relatively) quick note to respond to the (much appreciated) scores of (very nice) notes online regarding today's news about Doctor Who. My interest and record is well-established; the only real question I think the BBC would (very fairly) ask is: would British fans be open --

The montage is great, of course, but listen to that Hazlehurst theme - music concrete, Blaxploitation guitar riffs, strings lush enough for Michel Legrand. (The original TV version, has the spoken word element that also adds a kind of department store tannoy rap to the mix.)

@SaucySeventies Did they break the fourth Wall?

@David_ParkerUK @Be_Believing It's actually the brilliant Mike Burnside (he does look a lot like Peter Vaughn though). But I've worked with Mike and he's excellent.

It’s the 20th anniversary of ‘Stars of CCTV’ by Hard-Fi. In our opinion it’s one of the best debut albums of all time and here’s a tribute poem to it.

Stars Of CCTV is 20 years old today, I know! The fact that people are still listening to our music and talking about it after all this time blows our minds and gives us a nice warm glow in the feels. None of it would've happened without you. Gawd Bless Ya! x
