Nearly two decades after its original run, it was announced recently that the time-bending police procedural was being revived with a new chapter entitled ‘Lazarus’. Be prepared to get hit by a car in 2006 and mysteriously wake up in 1973 all over again. Again.

Presenting: THE ARCHIVIST 🎥✨
David ‘Doc’ Rowe has spent decades documenting Britain’s vibrant folk traditions. Now, with time running short, he faces a race to preserve his legacy.
Rowe has devoted his life to documenting customs, songs and celebrations that few others thought worthy of attention, building an extraordinary archive along the way. As personal challenges mount and the collection’s future grows uncertain, the urgency of his mission sharpens. With remarkable access, we get close to Rowe as he pushes forward, idiosyncratic and unflappable, navigating the fragile line between preserving memory and letting go. THE ARCHIVIST is a story about one person’s determination to celebrate the living traditions that connect us to where we come from and who we are, whatever the cost.

All dragon-lines lead to North Oxfordshire this coming Saturday (25th), for the annual Adderbury Day of Dance. The Adderbury dances were collected by Janet Heatley Blunt and Cecil James Sharp. The Adderbury tradition was revived in 1975 by a team led by Bryan Sheppard and Tim Radford. A special memorial service for Tim Radford will be held in the village at 2pm on Friday 24th (St. Mary’s church).

WAY OF THE MORRIS is available to watch via Vimeo or old-school digital-versatile-disc. “A celebration of survival and triumph over adversity.”

Deleted FARAWAY Tree 👈🌳✨
.
These two photos of myself and director @yesdrs were taken a whole 2️⃣0️⃣ earth years apart. The first image was captured at Newport Pagnell Services on the M1, during the filming of the cult comedy sci-fi short BLAKE’S JUNCTION 7, whilst the second one was meticulously recreated in Malta, during the final throes of filming on THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE (September 2023). Both night-shoots, for the record. 🌘
🌳
My character in THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE, Dodgy Trader #29, didn’t make the final cut of the movie unfortunately, although you can just about make out my fake dreadlocks in the deep background of a couple of shots - if you know exactly where to look. 👀 Produced by @nealstreetproductions and @elysianfilmgroup and written for the screen by that man @simon_farnaby , THE MAGIC FARAWAY TREE is out in UK cinemas right about now!

New title, new posters. @oneadampark ’s HOW TO SURVIVE THE WILD is gearing up to be unleashed on the world later this year. I was one of the screenwriters on the feature. Here’s the logline:
An off-grid couple become unsuspecting test subjects for an elite group of Billionaires looking to live forever.
It might tap into a few things going on in the world today. The film stars Jördis Richter, Tim Plester, and Richard Brake. I’m very excited about it.
More details soon.
That’s The WAY To Do It! 👺

Written and directed by Tim Plester, SLAPHAPPY is a tragi-comic burst of faux found-footage, which subverts 350 years of seaside Punch and Judy tradition via the once popular early 2000’s trend of using mobile phones to film violent assaults on unsuspecting victims. Chris Sloman as Punchinello. Maime McCoy as Judy Magenta. Coral Beed as Judy Green, Kate Ambler as Judy Red. Henry Miller as P.C. Finlayson. Rob Curry as The Crocodile. Winner of “Best Film” at the 15 Second Film Festival in Belfast in 2008. Produced by Fifth Column Films. Wardrobe by @mrgammon .
