On 11th to 13th June 2008 I was filming for THE BILL. I played Omar, a fuel station attendant who helps the Police by identifying the criminal. It was an introduction to TV work, more than anything. It didn't feel like acting work at all; it was more like working in a factory. The only glamorous part is when you arrive at the studios and are shown your dressing room, with your name on the door, and your costume waiting inside. |

On Saturday 3rd May, I recorded PROUD SONGSTER, a radio drama production for Channel 4. Proud Songster tells the story of Sarah, a young English teacher, working at a church mission school in Rwanda and the impact the genocide had on her life. The story switches between Africa and England, and is punctuated with the theme of birdsong. |

On the week-end of Friday 11th to Sunday 13th April, I was in London recording FORTY THREE, FIFTY NINE - YARA, a drama production for BBC Radio. We recorded on location, in the streets of London. The play is about Yara, a student from Chechenya who is part of a plot to terrorise London with bomb attacks (Russian dignitaries are on visit in London). I played Henri, another foreign student, who's in love with her but hasn't got a clue of what she does. The play is about the last 43 minutes 59 seconds leading to Yara committing the suicide bombing attack. |

At the end of the pre-show talk to TESTING THE ECHO, today at the Oxford Playhouse, I had a chance to talk to Max Stafford-Clark. First there was a Q&A session where I asked him about his personal experience when he went to Rwanda to research THE OVERWHELMING. A couple of years ago I went to watch this play at the National Theatre and was struck by its authenticity. After that I'd written to Max Stafford-Clark to congratulate and thank him for the experience. |
