Brian and Charles [DVD]

Product Information

I had a couple, as it goes. It’s not something I’ve spoken about before. They were funny little characters. I remember going out to my nan’s garden and having a chat with them. When we were initially writing the film, we didn’t quite know what Charles would be. Is he an alien who’s crash-landed from a planet full of Charleses? Do we reveal at the end that it’s just Brian dragging around a washing machine and it’s all been in his mind? But that would be annoying and the audience would feel cheated. It’s about this gang of clowns who find themselves in a strange situation. We filmed it this spring in Ireland. It’s kind of a road movie, heading towards this ridiculous climax. I’m wearing a red nose for most of it, so I’m in disguise again.

My wife’s originally from Devon and we wanted to bring up the kids down here. But maybe there is something about detaching slightly from London, too.Looking ahead to this weekend, when the BAFTA awards will take place- although the pair are not attending the ceremony, they have been dazzled by the news that it has been recognised on a larger scale and are hoping for the best. Mari said: "I think it just shows how much people need comedy right now."

Actor David Earl: ‘Sex scenes? I’d rather go back to

What's On Welsh identical twins breaking into the film industry with roles in a BAFTA-nominated indie filmI think it's about finding equity in roles rather than preaching equality. It's about the crossover of the whole industry rather than pigeonholing people. For instance, making it possible for disabled people to apply for able-bodied roles." This is a fun and quirky movie. It has a slow start and a lot of kids will think it's boring at first. But once the Charles character is introduced it becomes a lot of fun. There are some bullies and it can be scary and frustrating as they do their bullying, but they are sorted out hilariously.
