  • Guardian-2May2018
    Interview Noel Fielding: 'Everything Salvador Dalí did was funny' Stuart Jeffries The comedian stars as one of his heroes, goth-rocker Alice Cooper, in Sky’s latest Urban Myths romp – so why did he pitch to play its other lead character, the clown prince of surrealism? Wed 2 May 2018 12.17 BST oel Fielding was born, or so you’d think, to play Alice Cooper. The eyeliner, the dangling black locks, the camped-up goth vibe, the way the comedian and Bake Off host dresses more outlandishly than anyone in any room, with the possible N exception of Prue Leith. Cooper has long been one of Fielding’s heroes. His parents were fans and inducted their son into the rock musician’s oeuvre, perhaps even instilling into little Noel the subversive philosophy of Cooper’s School’s Out. “I love his music. He was a punk before punk.” The Adventures of Alice and Noel, from the Guardian’s Guide, 2012. Illustration: Noel Fielding And then one day, Cooper appeared as a guest on the pop quiz show Never Mind the Buzzcocks, on which Fielding was a team captain. Their relationship blossomed. “He invited me to his show and then I did a cartoon strip about him in the Guardian.” He also interviewed his hero for the paper. So when Fielding went to audition for a role in a new drama for Sky Arts’ Urban Myths series about the time the glam rocker met the venerable shock artist Salvador Dalí, Fielding was a shoo-in to play Cooper. But he had other ideas.

QUICK THOUGHTS ● Marisa Serafini ● Phil Svitek DEVELOPMENT ● “I am thrilled to be back in the warm embrace of Paddington Bear, again under the inspired direction of Paul King. And I’m delighted to welcome Hugh and Brendan to our exceptional cast.” WRITING (Paul King, Simon Farnaby) ​ ● King had a writing ally this time in Simon Farnaby, an old pal from his days directing surreal BBC3 sitcom The Mighty Boosh ● “He doesn’t sleep during the year and a half of prep, shooting and post-production,” says David Heyman, Paddington’s producer.” - David Heyman ● “When I was writing the first film, I vaguely had the idea of a villain who might be a vain-actor-slash-master-of-disguise,” says King. “We abandoned the idea after about 20 minutes. It was always too much legwork. But when I started working with Simon Farnaby on this one, he really ran with it. He is very funny on actors and the ridiculousness of that trade.”- King STORY/TOPICS ● Popup book- Paddington getting job to purchase book ● Incarceration - Friends CAST: ​ BEN WHISHAW (Paddington) ​ ● “When I record the voice I’m wearing this kind of helmet, which has a huge arm on it and then a camera stuck on the arm recording my face,” says Whishaw.
