CILLA - THE PLAY

[karl]

Well Jon it was S H O U T that put Lulu where she is today, I think for a wee Scottish lassie it was a brilliant record!

[ROBERT M.]

Although I like many male singers I've always had a fondness for female singers.

Me too...........Matt is my number 1 without a doubt ............but most of my other favourite artist's are female singers

I thought Sheridan did an excellent job well done to her.
I saw the Who Do You Think You Are on Sheridan and enjoyed it very much Iv'e seen all of them that's been put out so far except one, it's the last one this next week on Twiggy.

Karl was saying how he watched and enjoyed the one on Martin Shaw I really enjoyed that one he is my favourite actor, can't wait for the new series of George Gentley to come back they have started filming it.

I love watching George Gently christine and Karl ...anything g to do with 60s and 70s ...takes me back to childhood ...but I do like the investigations on Geroge Gently ...l

[karl]

Martin Shaw is also one of my favourite actors and I saw him onstage earlier this year in London in "12 Angry Men" with Robert Vaughan.

Martin was brilliant in Judge john Deed I have the whole series and also earlier in The Chief, he also comes over very well on the rare occasion he does a tv interview and has a good sense of humour.

George Gently is also a great series but his Sergeant annoys me!

[karl]

Paul O'Grady played Sheridan's version of You're My World yesterday, she sings it very well and the backing is identical to Cilla's, the only gripe I have is Sheridan puts a slight sob in her voice on "World" which Cilla never did. Apart from that she was brilliant in the series.

I think he also played Sheridan singing "Anyone who had a heart" near the beginning of the show-I really liked it.

[Rmoore]

Time to get writing and see if the same production team will follow this up with Matt's story perhaps!

[karl]

That sounds like a good idea too Richard.

[maxine]

Wow yes they must do this ..that would more than cool

[mariana44]

Who could play Matt--and do the singing too???

[Rmoore]

Ah that's the rub. Nobody an actually sing like Matt - I'd plump to go with the original rcordings in Matt's case.

Here's some one who has been suggested before (By Don in an old thread) who has a resemblence. Google:- "peter sarsgaard an education stills"

Anyone else have any ideas. I know Michele has said George Clooney in the past but I think he's a bit old to play him in the early ears now (and I think in general Michele just likes George Clooney!)

[maxine]

And now George is busy being married .....

Maybe there are a few tribute acts in the world who could be auditioned and given acting lessons

[Rmoore]

I've never heard a trubute act who's managed to get close!

[maxine]

Maybe a great tribute act mimer ...with acting lessons ...I know it's is such a tall order ...might be best to leave it all alone ....
