Last night’s screening in Birmingham went very well. A good turnout, laughs in all the right places, and a few people asked me for my autograph – normally only my mum’s friends do that. The cause was undoubtedly helped by the Midlands Today report, which ultimately went out yesterday, on the breakfast and lunchtime bulletins as well as the evening programme. The Birmingham Post ran a big article and a review – the worst one so far, but it still gave the film three stars.

A friend of AJ’s gave a copy of Soul Searcher to Jonathan Ross the other day. The Sharply-Suited One had already heard of the film.

By the way, Herefordians – don’t try to buy Impact from that newsagent on Commerical Road; they don’t stock it any more.
