The Creative Industries Minister having a beauty contest between four to take over UK Film Council row : BBC; Channel 4; Film London; BFI. What was this role ? http://www.savethebr...-the-bond-girl/ Well as official LEADER of The UK Film Industry with an avowed policy of attracting in...

More people writing to PM, Deputy PM, Chancellor, First Secretary to The Treasury, Culture Secretary and Creative Industries Minister calling for removal of monies and official lead agency status of regional film quangos. They are officially 'lead agency for film, tv and digital media'. See...

Very many people on the point of talking to the police about Screen WM but just hoping that the Culture Secretary lets the axe fall so that we can move forward and get major inward investment and jobs in the West Midlands. If not then Variety may have a follow up story.

The irony is thast UKFC are still getting their millions for 18 months, they are still being silent over UK sound stages in peril, they still have no plan B if next week a new party bids for Pinewood Shepperton plc shares and over 50% of shareholders take the price on offer. This new party...

There is apparently some march viz UKFC fat cat jobs August 28. Let's hope it flops and the matter can end before the disinformation spreads to Uni students when they start the new term. A quick survey of those who have signed - or say they would (on the few false UKFC stats provided)...

You can not make it up. The UKFC are spending millions on decorating their offices. Just as well you film makers do not need a few million for your projects. http://www.savethebr...at-bureaucrats/

Unintentionally UKFC has left us a fantastic legacy. The ultimate dinner party game. Please no googling, no cheating. http://www.savethebr...k-film-council/
