  6. What larks. The stamping of the ms was masterly and rather frightening. Those agents are made of stern stuff.

  8. Candy, I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE IT!!!!!

    Do you need a producer? No?
    Er... how about an Editor? Assistant Director?
    No, okay... Best Boy, I'll be the Best Boy, can I? Please?
    Okay, I'll make the sandwiches, anything to be part of you next movie!

  10. i mean, the expression on mia's face as she crumpled that piece of paper was priceless!

    connie's interpretation of rejection totally gets the process. she's got a future in publishing, that girl.

  11. Aw, no, have you taken it down, Candy - when I try to connect it tells me the video is no longer available?

  12. I take it back - third time lucky and it played.

    Brilliant Candy, absolutely brilliant! And Mia and Connie definitely have a future on the big screen!

    Candy, FANTASTIC! Love the soundtrack - who would have thought it was a versatile as that. My congratulations to the cast and crew - bound to be this summer's blockbuster...

  15. Oh my goodness, that's HILARIOUS! Like, the kind that has me shrieking with laughter and worrying the downstairs neighbour. Love the stamping agent, everyone's brilliant. Really nice editing, too.

    The new Shepperton Studios coming our way! :-D

  20. I think Aisha would make a great agent. But I wouldn't wish the job on her! I think it must be tough.

  21. Not a prop?!!! Oh, the horror!!
