another tiny Roof mention

[ukelelehip]

A snippet from a big interview with Rob Brydon (whom I love btw) in The Times:

Things went pear-shaped when he tried to get into drama college. “I auditioned for RADA but didn’t get in. I was terribly intimidated by these men from London who had Byronic Rufus Sewell hair and long coats and they were all exploring the human condition while I’d been in musicals and had impersonated my teachers.”

For those of you unfamiliar with Rob Brydon, he is a well known comedian in the UK who is doing more and more 'straight' roles these days. He actually had a tiny part in Martha, meet... as one of the people arguing when a bus hits Joe Fiennes' car at the airport.

I love Rob Brydon! "Marion & Geoff" is a classic. And if you've not seen "Cruise of the Gods" with Steve Coogan, Uke, it's a must. I think I have it here somewhere but it's on PAL VHS. Let me know if you want to borrow it. Of course, then I'd have to find it!

Rai ;D

Thanks, Rai, I'd never heard of Cruise of the Gods before you mentioned it. I adore Marion & Geoff and Tristram Shandyand all his Keith Barret stuff. I just looked around for a download of Cruise of the Gods and I found one! Should be on my computer in the next two hours. Thanks for the heads up, it sounds hilarious.
