A NEW BREED OF CRIMINAL
Dave and I have known the writer of A NEW BREED OF CRIMINAL, Steve Wraith, for a few years now. We both pop up to Newcastle for varying reasons and, to be frank, don't need much of an excuse. Inspired by Stephen Sayers' rise from the backstreets of Newcastle's West End to the top of the criminal ladder and the authorities subsequent attempt to bring him crashing back down again, A NEW BREED OF CRIMINAL has been doing rather well in the film charts.
How exciting is it then, that both of us were both able to get involved in this film. This was Dave's first speaking role and my own first ever film role. We cannot thank Steve enough for this fantastic opportunity. Richard John Taylor directs this incredible film, who is also a wonderful friend. The producer role and cinematic filming credits go to Neil Jackson, again a long standing friend.
Dave had the opportunity to have two parts in this film and, of course, took both. One of those was a small speaking part. This film was wrapped on 28th July 2024. We are looking forward to the premier.

IMMORTIUM
Dave and I love these images by photographer Mike Alsford, who has worked on some fantastic film and television productions. We particularly love the one with Jason Collins sweeping down the stairs behind us. Jason's character is called La Croix. As you might guess from the backdrop the setting for the day was in a museum. For more information on what the show might be about you can follow "immortium" on TicTok to view some fun videos, or follow them on Facebook
We would both like to extend our heartfelt thanks, firstly to Ryan Noire for his time, conversations and his passion for what he does, which led to introductions and opportunity. Secondly to Luke King Abbott for his creativity, belief, determination and knowledge. (To be fair each have all these qualities). Through these two men, an incredible trust was formed.
The filming of what was going to be a series is now proposed to be a feature film, which is totally amazing. This project is in the post-production stage, with each of us being executive producers.
