Site: Another layout change
As you may see, we’ve undergone another layout change. A number of complaints about the darkness of the last layout prompted this, despite a number of other positive comments regarding it. Hopefully this one will meet with more approval, although I admit I don’t like this one so much.
Please let me know regarding any problems with it, and I will do my best to rectify it immediately.
Site: New Layout!
Finally, we have a new customized layout – I had simply been lazy recently and resorted to easy WP themes, but we now have a new proper layout! I made the header, and the wonderful Celyn coded the wordpress element for me (so a huge thanks to her, because I wouldn’t have been able to get it online otherwise!!).
Let us know what you think – I chose to use this photoshoot again (it was also used on the last gallery theme) because it is one of my favourites!
EDIT
Now on the sidebar – we have a ShoutBox! Let us know what you think of the site there, and what you would like to see added!
Gallery: The End of Time Part 2
I’ve finally gotten around to adding the screencaptures from The End of Time – Part Two to the gallery – I had a problem with the original file so it took longer than expected!!

News: Hamlet Information
Since the announcement of John’s role in the forthcoming stage production of Hamlet in Sheffield, news has been rather slow. I emailed the box office of The Crucible yesterday regarding ticket information and when the production run would start. The emailed reply I received back is below;
Hi,
Currently the only details we have are that it will start in September
and tickets will go on sale in May. We will update our website with
further information when we receive it.
Many thanks
Kate
Many thanks to Kate for replying, and I hope to have more ticket information nearer the time for you guys!

John Simm cast in McGovern’s ‘Moving On’
John Simm has been cast in the second series of Jimmy McGovern’s Moving On.
Last summer, the BBC announced that the daytime drama had been recommissioned for a second run.
The former Doctor Who star will be joined in the new series by talent including Corin Redgrave, Anna Massey, Robert Glenister, Gerard Kearns, Ewen Bremner and Roy Marsden.
BBC Controller of daytime Liam Keelan said: “It’s very exciting to be able to announce the high-profile cast that are going to be appearing in the next series of Moving On and will be something for our viewers to look forward to.”
Producer Colin McKeown added: “This new series will continue to explore the thorny contemporary issues of Alzheimer’s, drug co-dependency, adoption, religion and special needs within the community, along with additional family issues such as sibling rivalry, loyalty and friendship.”
Other cast additions include Nicola Stephenson, Lisa Faulkner, Jo Hartley, Tachia Newall, Kieran O’Brien and Susan Lynch.
The ten stand-alone episodes will be broadcast on BBC One later this year. Further casting is expected to be announced shortly.
The Wire star Dominic West makes his UK directorial debut in Liverpool with BBC drama Moving On
THE Wire star Dominic West is making his UK debut behind the camera – and is filming in Liverpool for the next week.
Dominic, who is best known for his role as Jimmy McNulty in the cult US cop show, is directing an episode of Jimmy McGovern’s Moving On.
Life on Mars actor John Simm takes the star role in the television drama and shooting for the 45-minute episode is now taking place in the city.
Simm, best known for his role in Life on Mars – which was co-created by Southport writer Tony Jordan – is filming for episode five, titled Malaise.
Alongside Simm is Trainspotting actor Ewen Bremner.
West, who has previously only directed an episode of The Wire, got behind the camera at The Quarter in Falkner Street yesterday morning.
He cast his eye over the cafe scene starring Simm and actress Susan Lynch, shouting out instructions in his crisp English accent, a far cry from the hard-drinking Irish American cop McNulty he made famous in Baltimore-based The Wire.
Moving On is made by Kirkdale-based production company LA Productions.
