I’ve had three days on “The Good Times Are Killing Me” and I can safely say that this is the funnest job ever. This is what I look like after I’ve brushed my hair – lush.
Kelly Rowan couldn’t be more gracious, warm and friendly. Rupert Graves is as mad as a box of frogs and preposterously fun to work with. Vincent Walsh and Ali Craig make me homesick for Ireland and Scotland and Aaron Abrams is just a doll. I haven’t laughed so much in an ensemble piece like this since my days in the National Youth Theatre as a kid. Everyone is extremely generous when off-camera in a shot and the crew are just a hoot. John L’Ecuyer is a real actors’ director – he trusts us and encourages our input and improvisation. The writer Cris Cole seems delighted at how his nine-year-old screenplay is finally coming to life. For my first movie I totally lucked out.
It’s jobs like this that remind me why it’s all I’ve ever wanted to do.

What was Rupert doing? haha!
Just generally monkeying around and making me pee my pants laughing. What a lovely guy.
