Extra Extras…read All About It

No one over here reads the papers pal…

This item is nothing much more than an excuse for a gratuitous posting of another of the pictures I took at the EXTRAS shoot. (06.07.2006 NEWS: BOWIE PART FILMED FOR EXTRAS & 06.09.2006 NEWS: NEW BOWIE PORTRAITS FROM EXTRAS SHOOT)

As ever, BowieNet members can click on the image above to reach a bigger version on the MBs.

While we’re on the subject of the filming of EXTRAS, I meant to post this one at the time, but it slipped through the net.

BowieNetter neukolner sent in the scans above from his local paper, The Hertfordshire Mercury, which, as you can see, made an understandably big deal of the fact that the sleepy village of Hertford had been visited by the world’s favourite Rock God.

You can read the feature online, (as I’m sure the majority of you already have) but one bit that tickled me was about local girl, Bridget Gill, who managed to outwit security and Fleet Street paparazzi by getting a few snaps for the Mercury.

However, according to the paper, Bridget admitted she’s not a big Bowie fan, but was impressed when Shaun Williamson, who played Barry Evans in BBC soap EastEnders, arrived on set!

Well, I did manage to get some pix of Shaun too, so if the demand is great enough, I’ll post some of those on the MBs. };-)

The second series of EXTRAS starts on BBC2 in the UK at 10:00pm on September 14th.
