Get Lost



At last, the 15-minute film I made for Bafta about Lost when its creators Damon Lindelof, Carlton Cuse and Jack Bender were in town in July is online (along with six other clips from the Bafta masterclass; they're all on YouTube too). It's nice to see the finished little film and to pretend to be a TV presenter again, for a bit. If you don't have the time to watch it, here are the presenting highlights: me standing outside a cinema; me standing on a roof; me standing on a roof, but shot from the ground; me leaning over the back of a cinema seat to interview a man; me pulling a funny face and walking into a cinema. What a pro.

I went to the Friday night event at the Curzon Mayfair and enjoyed it enormously.

Particularly when you got the audience to sing the theme tune...

Nice piece of work. With that tan and those teeth you look ready for Hollywood yourself.

The tan was all the work of Glastonbury!

I missed this night because I was trying to illegally acquire an invite but my 'inside man' had a day off. Something to do with a pig coughing or something like that. I forget! Urgh... hehe

Can't wait for the new season... can't wait! Thanks Andrew.

An excellent funny face. Will have to make time to watch this over the weekend as Lost is about the only American import I have time for.

David Lean? Dali? Anything you say, Tom Waits.

I hope your neck didn't get too strained doing the interview.

Glad to see you came back to the show, Andrew. Annoys me to no end we (in America) have to wait till next year to see how it all ends.

You look even more like Mark Steel in those shapshots.

That was cool and very informative. You certainly seemed to ask all the right questions - I actually feel like getting a box set of Lost immediately!

Although, having just had a proper look at the last image of you - you look like you work in a certain men's outfitters - suits you sir;}

Sorry - very off thread, but just noticed the name of a new Radio 4 documentary series... http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00mbg9n

As the latest episode is in praise of M Thatcher's courting of Nissan, I suspect you may be wish to sue.
