UK TV: BBC TO AIR DOCUMENTARY ‘CAN WE TRUST THE POLICE?’

June 8, 2012

The BBC will air a new “hard-hitting” documentary which asks the question “Can We Trust The Police?”. Hmmmm… let me have a long hard think before I answer. The documentary  is made and fronted by actor and the mainstream face of all things “URBAN” Adam Deacon (29), who according to London 24 will be seen going out on shifts with officers to learn more about their job as well as meeting people who feel they have been let down by the system. He also tells the website that he has always been “wary” […]

March 10, 2012

Oh dear… more drama in the heady/exciting world of UK entertainment this morning. Actor Adam Deacon was supposed to appear as a guest on the popular Sky 1 morning show Soccer Am today to promote his new film Payback Season, but was a no-show. So throughout the morning hosts Max and Helen were firing sly shots at Adam. Max called Adam “lazy” and viewers were told that he “couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed”. As you can imagine this didn’t […]

VIDEO: TIM WESTWOOD INTERVIEWS ADAM DEACON (“HACKNEY VERSUS HOLLYWOOD” – PREJUDICE IN THE INDUSTRY)

March 3, 2012

Tim “Big Dawg” Westwood conducted this interview with actor Adam Deacon before he went on to win the BAFTA Rising Star award voted by the public several weeks ago. I knew Adam would take home this award because he campaigned like an US politician on speed and encouraged his thousands of Twitter followers to vote and his famous friends. He even turned up to The Woman In Black film premiere and posed for the cameras with ‘Vote For Me’ flyers and apparently […]

UK NEWS: ACTOR ADAM DEACON TALKS ABOUT RACE IN THE UK – ‘MY TAKE ON TANNING”

January 27, 2012

I have said on numerous occasions that for some strange reason British actor Adam Deacon seems to have become the ‘go to person’ when mainstream media outlets want to venture in to topics relating to all things “URBAN”. He recently appeared on the Eddie Nestor radio talk show to discuss the Stephen Lawrence trial/verdict  which for various reasons raised an eyebrow. Anyway now in a recent interview featured on US entertainment mogul Steve Stoute’s The Tanning Of America website he talks about Race in the UK. Check out excerpts from the […]

UK ANTICS: ANGRY STUDENTS PROTEST AFTER HEADMASTER CANCELS ACTOR ADAM DEACON’S SCHOOL APPEARANCE

January 18, 2012

Woodbridge High School in North East London had arranged for actor and now the official spokesperson for “URBAN” youth Adam Deacon (28) to visit its students today, but according to the Kidulthood, Adulthood and Anuvahood star the headmaster decided that he was no longer welcome and cancelled his appearance. From what I understand the headmaster had some concerns relating to some of the films Deacon has starred in which depict gang violence and road man antics. In response to this decision Deacon’s manager Dhanny […]

UK FILM: ANUVAHOOD REVIEW

March 19, 2011

Over a year ago actor/writer/director Adam Deacon tweeted that he was working diligently on his first film script (Anuvahood) and I was instantly intrigued. What sort of script would the star of Kidulthood and Adulthood produce, and more importantly would the end result just end up going straight to DVD? Long before the cast and crew had been hired and long before the director screamed “QUIET ON SET PLEASE! ACTION!” Deacon’s supporters online were already hyping up Anuvahood like it was the […]
