In The Press Thread, For the small bits of news. Options

[Baz]

Well this is a thread for all the small bits of news that you might read about a cast memeber in the press.


Like today, there was a small piece in the Sun News Paper saying tht Simon had finshed writing "Hot Fuzz" and filming would start on the film in the next couple of months.

How true this is, who knows after all, it did come form the Sun News Paper!!

Bit surprised it's not been mentioned but Simon and Nick are in the current NME mag. Just a couple of little photos (one very nice of Simon on page 42, I must say) and a quick couple of chats. It's out until tomorrow if you just want to catch it.

For the benefit of those who maybe can't get it, or can't be arsed, the relevent bits go like thus:


SIMON PEGG
COMEDIAN

Who should win an award tonight?
"British music, that's who...and it's gonna, in spades. The Monkeys should win, not Peter Tork and that, but the Arctic version."

Who looks good on the dancefloor?
"Me and Nick Frost. Naked."

Preston and Chantelle, how long do you give it?
"They both came across as very sweet on Big Brother. So everyone should just leave 'em alone for a little while and see what happens."

What shape should the NME award be?
"A good thumbs up. stop trying to be punk."

Bird flu - are you prepared?
"Not really. I've got a face mask in the shape of a beak but that's about it."

What does Ian Brown mean to you?
"Bristol Bierkeller, 1989, getting my glasses scratched. Monkey-like genius."


RUSSELL BRAND REVIEWED
By last year's hosts Simon Pegg and Nick Frost

"He was great. Couldn't fault him. Could we have done better? Well, we did do last year. He's young and full of energy and you need that in a presenter. Remember, he's playing to a tough crowd, made up of ultra-cool music people with expressionless faces. So you've got to applaud him for keeping it interesting past that crucial 40-minute mark. We especially liked the jokes about Peter Sutcliffe. Gags about murderers? We lap it up. We've seen him before, back when he was a crackhead. He was as good then - although he used to cut himself up with glass bottles by mistake. We're into that, though. Maiming yourself and jokes about murderers. We like that. We thought he still was a crackhead. No, but it's not really for us to judge how good he was, is it? We're just rich, famous, international Hollywood film stars."


Sorry there's no pics as the scanner's, well, not plugged in!
