Waypoints and it was so worth it. Brave , open , honest and funny . No ego and whole lot of self awareness which is rare these days . Beautiful writing style.. I am a little bit jealous

Winning a Scottish BAFTA finally .. his speech was crafted from his generosity and humility as an actor and his immense pride and leadership as an executive producer. Beautifully balanced

Miss this guy so much! He inspired and challenged me everyday as an actor and most of all he made me laugh... usually too much. I was constantly in trouble for messy mascara from crying with laughter!

I was lucky enough to be cast in two of the great shows created by the brilliant Reg Watson ... before the days of the ubiquitous reality boom. I am eternally grateful for his talent and grace

Sad news this morning! My friend and mentor of sorts , the great Bert Newton died yesterday at 83. Such a brilliant, loving, generous entertainer and even better father husband and grandfather. My thoughts are with Patti, Matthew,Lauren and Matt and his beautiful grandchildren. X
Rumour has it that Channel 5 are starting playing the first 60 episodes of Prisoner (PCBH) from today on My 5 and if it is successful it will play all eight years ! Is this true?
