Are you saying I've got big feet? No, I am not sulking! No-oh I am not! All I am saying is, I can get very nasty if you carry on with your remarks.

Rufus Sewell wanted to be a drummer. Then he met Tina Hurley, who was a dedicated drama teacher. She knew she had to be resolute at the preparation for the audition - it's hard to get through the audition process of a drama school in general - and, well, Rufus wanted to be a drummer...Voice of Tina Hurley: Are his hands bound together tightly enough? Helpful Friend: Yes, but he can still tap his foot - Voice of Tina Hurley: Don't worry, I locked his shoes in the cupboard. In those socks he can't do much noise. Helpful Friend: Ah, good. But will this costume work? I mean, all this garb just to hide the David Bowie hair - Voice of Tina Hurley: We'll choose a monologue which fits to this outfit...umm...something special... Rufus <recites>: "Watching them come and go The Templars and the Saracens They're travelling the holy land Opening telegrams Torture comes and torture goes Knights who'd give you anything They bear the cross of Coeur de Leon Salvation for the mirror blind But if you pray all your sins are hooked upon the sky Pray and the heathen lie will disappear Prayers they hide the saddest view -" Voice of Tina Hurley: What's this? Helpful Friend: Umm... Loving the Alian?? Voice of Tina Hurley <sigh>: Go and find a third sock for his mouth...
So, at the audition it got discovered how expressing Rufus's face is...and he became an actor.
(But if you'll watch closely, you might notice that Autolycus beats the enemy in a fancy rhythm.)

(A slightly over the top article about Saffra: articles.latimes.com/2000/apr/28/entertainment/ca-24210 But the "sunny personality" phrase is nice. ) Rufus: I always ask the writers to give me nice lines, but they don't listen to me. It is so difficult to pronounce "dot dot dot" with two added consonants. And I can't use my accents to have fun, if I have to utter symbols. Brooke Shields: Are you kidding me? Rufus: No, I am asking your help. Please, let's hide the copies of the play and improvise. Brooke Shields: What will we say? Rufus: The dog ate them...oh, you mean...nothing dirty, of course. Brooke Shields: Come on, learn your lines - I know you, you can't deceive me with this dot dot story.Eww, Marley, Latin words are able to kill. Look at what the script did to the poor dog.

Scene...... A house in Wimbledon.
Time... one hour after end of Rufus's performance. The sound of a front door being slammed violently, followed by the stamp of heavy angry foot steps Living room door is thrown open violently. Baby Roofie :... I TOLD YOU! I TOLD YOU .. YOU said they would be OK I told you they wouldn't be I told you THEY WEREN'T. EVERYBODY LAUGHED! Mum........ Well, weren't they supposed to? Baby Roofie.. They weren't laughing at the playHis lip beginning to tremble. ............ THEY WERE LAUGHING AT MY SOCKS!

Excellent ladies - the socks are quite a conversation piece!! They would be ideal for a pair of Clangers!! For those of you who are way too young to remember - The Clangers were on children's TV long ago!! This is the Agamemnon birthday card version!! I stand guilty of making these from socks (clean only) for my kids when they were small. It seemed like a good idea at the time, probably a Blue Peter moment. Could this be construed as child abuse, I wonder??? After all................. Birthday Greetings.....I'll give you birthday greetings....where's those Clangers socks?
