    You may remember Adam from the UKTheatre.TV Love Labours Won clip on the site. He's a talented Canadian actor living in London and has kicked off 2007 with a bang. This week he was in a photo shoot with Katie Price/Jordan, dressed as a fox !  Then two days later, he was accepted as the understudy of Tom in the Glass Menagerie with Jessica Lange in the West End.  Check out his uktheatre profile here

    UKFilm.TV

    You probably know by now that I'm covering the Oscars next month live to your inbox from Hollywood. I've got a room booked in the "home of the Academy" and I've already got breakfast meetings setup with the director of Les Miserables, a Hollywood film director and two presenters of a popular Italian TV programme. If you are registered with alerts@uktheatre.net then I will send as many blogs and pics as I can over the weekend to give an inside and exclusive view of Hollywood's annual celebration of film making.

    Who do I think will win ?  The Queen and Helen Mirren. Last King of Scotland and Forest Whitaker. I would like to have seen Will Smith but he never got through on the BAFTAs which surprised me.

    Here's a link to the reviews I did earlier this month.

    UKGigs.TV
    This is developing well and I've been asked to create a concept for a new single for a major band. They might not choose my ideas but just to be asked is exciting. I'm currently looking for a big name film director to work with. I can't say more than that for now.
