The latest issue of Doctor Who Magazine, out now in all good newsagents near you, is a very special piece of work. Not only because it has two of my features in it (the Sarah Jane Adventures cover story, and a piece celebrating robot dog K9's 30th birthday), but because it includes a contribution from a very helpful young man. Lucy's son Alf was kind enough to grant me a quote about how much he likes K9! What a star. He even opens the article, too...This weekend, I'm feeling relieved. Decided to take a break from the ASK script over the last few days - not that I really had much choice, what with various bits of freelance work and heat mag temping to contend with. Anyway, as I printed out the rough draft last night, I was nervous that I would re-read it and weep. But thankfully, I like it. By the time I've finished with it this week, it will hopefully be a good, solid first draft. Then drafts two, three, six and indeed 27 will turn it into a right ol' diamond.
The highlight of this week was undoubtedly hanging around with Sharon Osbourne, backstage at Parkinson. By popular demand (well, Piers demanded it, and he's popular), here's a pic of me and Mrs O, walking down some stairs. If anyone would like to come up with a caption, or indeed try to guess the number of chins I have on display, then go right ahead...
couldn't you have tried to look a litle camper? ;)
ReplyDeleteSharon is saying, "No, 'Evil Woman' wasn't written about me. 'Bat Out of Hell' was though."
ReplyDelete"How about I whistle you a nice Irish jig while I stab you with the syringe I'm hiding in my hand... hmmm?"
ReplyDeleteHow nice that you put my son in your article and right at the beginning... It was completely unprovoked and nothing to do with the fact I too have a syringe in my hand ; )
ReplyDeleteI see... cool... Ozzy who?"
ReplyDeleteSharon's thinking...
ReplyDelete"And I've got to have this w - fellow around me all day?"
-Did you just pinch my bum?
ReplyDelete-Oh, Jason, don't ruin it.
