Throughout his career he has starred in films such as Nowhere Boy, The Ones Below, The Other Boleyn Girl, Hilary & Jackie, and many more. His stage credits include The End of History, Julius Caesar, Macbeth, and Three Days of Rain. However, David is probably best known internationally for the role of The Governor in the hit show The Walking Dead, while his other TV credits include Dr Who, State of Play, The Driver, and Britannia. This event will be hosted by the renowned film critic Peter Bradshaw.

  • 2 a Quotation of Normality – the Family Myth 3 'C'mon Mum, Monday
    Notes 2 A Quotation of Normality – The Family Myth 1 . A less obvious antecedent that The Simpsons benefitted directly and indirectly from was Hanna-Barbera’s Wait ‘til Your Father Gets Home (NBC 1972–1974). This was an attempt to exploit the ratings successes of Norman Lear’s stable of grittier 1970s’ US sitcoms, but as a stepping stone it is entirely noteworthy through its prioritisation of the suburban narrative over the fantastical (i.e., shows like The Flintstones , The Jetsons et al.). 2 . Nelvana was renowned for producing well-regarded production-line chil- dren’s animation throughout the 1980s. It was extended from the 1960s studio Laff-Arts, and formed in 1971 by Michael Hirsh, Patrick Loubert and Clive Smith. Its success was built on a portfolio of highly commercial TV animated work that did not conform to a ‘house-style’ and allowed for more creative practice in television and feature projects (Mazurkewich, 1999, pp. 104–115). 3 . The NBC US version recast Feeble with the voice of The Simpsons regular Hank Azaria, and the emphasis shifted to an American living in England. The show was pulled off the schedules after only three episodes for failing to connect with audiences (Bermam, 1999, para 3). 4 . Aardman’s Lab Animals (2002), planned originally for ITV, sought to make an ironic juxtaposition between the mistreatment of animals as material for scientific experiment and the direct commentary from the animals them- selves, which defines the show. It was quickly assessed as unsuitable for the family slot that it was intended for (Lane, 2003 p.

  • Avoncroft Museum Stars in New Christmas Blockbuster
    AVONCROFT MUSEUM STARS IN NEW CHRISTMAS BLOCKBUSTER Bromsgrove’s Avoncroft Museum is playing a starring role in the latest British comedy to hit the silver screen – Nativity 2: Danger in the Manger! The museum’s wagon shed, which dates back to the early 18th Century, was transformed into a stable so that it could be used as a backdrop for key scenes in the family-friendly festive film which opened in cinemas on November 23. Starring well-known actors David Tennant, Joanna Page, Jessica Hynes, Marc Wootton and Pam Ferris, Nativity 2 is the sequel to Nativity!, which was a massive hit in 2009. The high-energy Christmas caper sees the pupils from St. Bernadette’s heading to Wales to compete in the national choir contest; ‘A song for Christmas’ and as you’d expect, there’s lots of fun and hilarity along the way. Cast and crew spent a full day filming at Avoncroft and according to the museum’s director, Simon Carter, a great time was had by all, including stunt donkey Archie. He said: “We really enjoyed having the Nativity 2 team on site and it was exciting to welcome such famous actors to the museum. “Both David Tennant and Marc Wootton visited our Edwardian tea room and feedback from the crew was overwhelmingly positive.” Avoncroft Museum is fast becoming a location of choice for TV and film crews looking for period settings or unusual venues. As well as being used in Nativity 2, in the last 12 months it will feature on Come Dine With Me and Antiques Road Trip in the New Year.

  • An Idiothole's Guide to the Show
    AN ID I OTHOLE ’S GU I DE TO THE SHOW ABOUT THE SHOW AN INTRODUCT I ON The Adam and Joe Show is a BBC6 Music radio slot on Saturday morning that starts at an un-godly 9:00am and ends at a much more reasonable 12:00pm. To date I must confess I have only ever once dragged myself out of bed to listen to the show. It was hard, but worth it if only for the communal idea of us all being...um...awake at the same time. (Not sure if I could manage it again. My partner grumbled about my early morning homage the whole way through. “Adam & Joe! Stupid Adam and Joe! I’m going to call them and tell them they are ruining my life!“ said with no small level of venom.) The show is hosted by Adam Buxton, a comedian, actor and music buff & Joseph Murray Cornish a writer, occasional actor and movie fanatic. Once upon a time they used to be on TV hosting their home-made pop-culture laden show on Channel 4 which for some reason Channel 4 ended after four seasons (what fools!). Luckily all the shows have been archived online and are free to watch at leisure. (Go to the Useful Links page for the web link. The show features music broken up by listener interactive elements and a lot of chit-chat bewteen the duo (who have known each other since they were in school) that you can giggle at while on the way to work, at work or even as suggested by A&J, on the loo.

A catalyst and an illuminator, but also a magnet for scandal, Robert Mapplethorpe had but one goal: to ‘make it’ as an artist and as an art celebrity. He could not have picked a better time: the Manhattan of Warhol’s Factory, Studio 54, and an era of unbridled hedonistic sexuality. His first solo exhibition in 1976 already unveils his subjects: flowers, portraits and nudes. Mapplethorpe quickly gains notoriety through his explicitly sexual photographs from the gay sadomasochistic scene as well as nude pictures of black men. Directors Fenton Bailey and Randy Barbato were given unrestricted access to Mapplethorpe’s archives for their documentary Mapplethorpe: Look at the Pictures, in which this exceptional artist talks candidly about himself in recently discovered interviews.
