Simon Pegg gives us The Message
Speaking to Simon Pegg at the Nordoff Robbins charity’s annual awards lunch."I just think it’s a really great cause", he told us. "I didn’t know I’d also be getting free things! That’s a bonus." He’s not just in it for the free goods. Simon’s wife Maureen has done a lot of work with the music therapy charity in Scotland. She visited one of the hospice facilities there last year when she was looking after Paulo Nutini; "Maureen said it was really incredible." From charity on to the topic of the day, music. His ultimate karaoke number? "Dancing Queen", he answers with no hesitation. "Or The Message, Grandmaster Flash. I did it on Saturday!" A big Pixies fan, Simon told us he’d choose Frank Black as his musical inspiration, and their album Doolittle is the first record he fell in love with. He also divulges that his current obsession, the thing he can’t leave alone, is his new iPhone. We’re jealous.

The British Independent Film Awards - Directors’...
Some of the movers and shakers in British film discuss the Awards, what they love about British films and which film, if any, they would make into a musical. t5m asked director of 'In The Shadow Of The Moon', David Sington, what is so important about British film? "Film is such an important medium and it’s a way for a society to look at itself and tell stories about itself and understand itself and if we’re not making films about Britain, then we’re missing out." No arguments there and his fellow director, Neil Marshall, adds that it’s just nice to have a lifeline of variety amongst the sea of American blockbusters on the market. In essence, British film is quintessentially refreshing. When it come to the big question - what makes a great film? - Sington is philosophical in his approach. "It’s the same ingredients that it’s been since the beginning of drama - Aristotle and the Greek playwrights…it works by identification with the characters and vicarious experience. So a film takes you somewhere hopefully that you otherwise wouldn’t be able to go and puts you in the shoes of someone you aren’t but you might be…"

Hot Fuzz Preview
After the success of “Shaun of the Dead”, Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg have earned a reputation for being the definitive Hollywood genre-busters. To follow up their homage/send-up of Zombie films, “Hot Fuzz” takes the Bruckheimer Cop-flick and dismantles it like you can’t even imagine. We got to catch the Premiere of it here, and it was all colours of hilarious. ~Matt + Nat

Russell Brand's Good Vibrations
Exuberant comedian Russell Brand was in fine form as he spoke to t5m at this year’s star-studded Silver Clef Awards. Brand was there to present The Newcomer Award to winner Amy MacDonald, following the success of her debut album ‘This Is The Life’. Chatting with t5m at the lunchtime event at the Park Lane Hilton, Brand enthused about the merits of music therapy. "Ain’t it that Mozart’s music’s better than anyone else’s for that? I’m into it! Cos it means vibrations have some kind of significance, like how we’re just a vibration! Vibrations, you know, as the Beach Boys said, are good".
