UK FILM: THE PICK UP (TRAILER)

The Pick Up is a short film written and directed by British actor Aml Ameen. Check out the trailer below. THE PICK UP is set in a trendy London nightclub and focuses on two socialite’s 20-somethings Jay (Najan Ward) and Adrian (Aml Ameen) and their quest to win the attention, and possible one night-stand bed posts of feisty university club queens Roxanne (Elizabeth Kostantino) and Hannah (Amy Connery). The adventure turns soar, when the boy’s squeaky clean mate David (Sam Underwood) sticks []

QUOTE OF THE DAY: NOEL CLARKE

The problem was I got a bit soft, I got a bit friendly i got a bit emotional. I started worrying and focusing too much on helping others. And I did help a lot of people. I don’t need to name them, I know who they are, You know who they are, they know who they are. I was always on this – “Gotta write a part for that guy, Gotta bring in that girl”. How can i help this person, how can []

UK MUSIC: IDRIS ELBA – ‘HOLD ON’

British actor Idris Elba has been out there promoting his musical endeavours for sometime now, but this is the first time I’ve actually bothered to listen to one of his tracks, and I’m now wishing I hadn’t bothered clicking on the play button. Idris should stick to what he is good at  – ACTING!!! I am guessing that he  surrounds himself with a bunch of sycophant ‘yes men” because Hold On is hilariously bad. And can somebody please tell me when Idris []

UK TV: JAMES CORDEN’S WORLD CUP LIVE – CALM DOWN JAMES!

Source I have been watching actor/’comedian’ James Corden’s new World Cup Live show (TFI Friday rip off) on ITV 1 and ITV 4 since the tournament kicked off in South Africa on June 11th, and it is quite entertaining.  However his interviews with individual members from the ridiculously lacklustre England squad (waste men) has so far been embarrassing to watch. I know that James is a huge football fan and that footballers in this country are treated like “Gods”, but he seriously []

UK NEWS: FILM CRITIC MARK KERMODE VERSES ‘ACTOR’ DANNY DYER

This brought on tears of laughter last night. Those of you familiar with British “actor” (and I use the term loosely) Danny Dyer will like me find this absolutely hilarious. For those of you out there who aren’t so familiar with Danny Dyer, he hails from London, has been acting for YEARS (since he was a child), plays the same character in every film (cockney rogue) and over exaggerates his off-screen persona by over doing it with the East-End ‘wide boy’ swagger and cockney slang/accent. Danny recently threatened []

PREVIEW: BRITISH ACTOR AML AMEEN STARS IN NEW US DRAMA HARRY’S LAW

I announced on Mad News earlier this year that British actor Aml Ameen (Kidulthood and The Bill) had bagged a role in the new US drama Harry’s Law. Now check out the preview below. I follow a few British actors/entertainers on Twitter and any day now their huge heads will explode in to a thousand pieces. A little success and an avalanche of compliments received via Twitter, and they turn fool. But I don’t get that big-headed vibe from Aml. This is []
