Matt Monro Forum

Has anyone seen the previews for the series Common Sense that starts on BBC2 Wednesday 10.0 pm for a six week run..........it has been widely advertised by the Beeb for the past couple of weeks .............here is the preview http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p04mc19s ..................well the lady on the right hand side in the opening shot is my mum who is going to feature in the series.........I don't know how she will get on as she is very camera shy .....................I got my love for Matt from my mum who is a big Matt fan ............she want's me to choose three Matt songs for her funeral, but she doesn't want to know which songs they are .................here is my "Spotlight on" feature where there is a photo of my young mum holding me when I was very young ...........http://www.mattmonro.com/Spotlight_Robert_McCloud.html ......................

Good luck to your Mum Robert, I am sure it will be a great experience for her.

Thanks for letting us know about the programme Robert and your mum's appearance. We have of course seen the advert for it many times. Will watch for that on Wednesay.
Really enjoyed reading your Spotlight on Matt too Robert.

Wow how awesome for your Mum and for you too Robert!

Mum and her two exercising friends were featured a few times during the opening programme tonight ............they have to do more filming over the coming weeks for the remaining five weeks of the series.

Missed it- hope to watch on catchup- how did it go Robert

It went pretty well ......... they were even doing some exercise dancing which looked cool ...........mum and her two friends were filming today and have to film again tomorrow (Saturday) for next week's show

It was the first of the series of Six and considering your mum and her friends are not professional, well done to them and hope it continues to go well Robert.

Mum was talking more on programme two on Wednesday gone

Still enjoying 'Common Sense' Robert with your Mum on it x

Pleased your enjoying it Sandra .......the first two weeks were a little slow, but the people in the show are getting used to being filmed now ...............my mum has talked about among other things.........her late dog Cassie ............where she met my dad..............where she gets he pension.........I think the programme is quite funny but it seems a bit odd to see my mum on TV ................mum was filming today (Friday) and tomorrow for next weeks final episode in the series ....................I know they go on, but I think the two guys in the Darlington pub are quite funny especially the one on the left, when he said about getting his leg over the other week, plus the comments they say about Donald Trump ..............................

The filming for this series of Common Sense ended today ..........the production crew presented my mum and the two other ladies with bouquets of flowers and a commemorative photograph containing all the people who have appeared on this series .................one of the production crew drives all the way to East Yorkshire for every filming session from London, then drives back again afterwards ............about a 500 mile round journey

A good last episode Robert.The 'three girls' got in to their stride . A lovely touch by the production crew too.

I enjoyed the series Sandra, quite funny at times ...........don't know if a further series will be commissioned by the BBC.
