In The Words Of
by Carl Marsh
name, yet I am still to finish the second instalment. If you don't know of the premise of this show [and games], think of a cross between The Walking Dead and the best-acted and written TV series you have ever enjoyed watching. The hype for this show was off-the-scale. And boy, hasn't it lived up to it - and surpassed by a country mile. I believe this show will win all the awards when it can be entered for them. Even if you don't like this end-of-times stuff, park that, and admire the beauty of the writing, acting, and cinematography. It's doubtful anything will come close to this show this year. As apocalyptic dramas go, this is a delight—pure class. The month of March should be the end of the cold weather for us all, and one would expect lower heating bills for all our homes. Fingers crossed, that's the way it will be. And the daffodils are out already, especially around my home by the stream. In February, I got invited to watch JaackMaate's Happy Hour Podcast tour at New Theatre in Cardiff. If you can recall, I interviewed a couple of the guys in January. Based on that chat, I got the nod to meet them all backstage too. I had a great time at this packed show. And as you can see from my pic, a blast was had!
INTRO RANT Did someone mention that I don't have any time for Welsh Labour? Oh yes, they are the gift that keeps on giving. Following on from my rant about pulling the M4 relief road, it appears the powers that be are now avoiding all new road expansion all over Wales. Is this to keep everyone poor and not to prosper? And have you seen the state of all the roads? Potholes are aplenty. You'd think the aversion to repair the streets - which will lead to more accidents - is to overemphasise this blanket 20 mph nonsense they want to impose from the current 30 mph. The people of Wales will only put up with so much of your nonsense, Welsh Labour. And I know quite a few of you read my column. Welsh Labour - be brave enough to let me interview you for my column. Please go on, do it. Don't hide.
TV REVIEW The Last of Us - Sky Atlantic I'm a big fan of the PlayStation games of the same 16 CARDIFF TIMES
INTERVIEWS I am a massive fan of the 1970s/1980s TV shows, too many to mention… The Fall Guy, The Six Million Dollar Man, Dynasty, The Saint… and when you come across a new film starring Lee Majors, Ian Ogilvy and Stephanie Beacham, I am all ears and eyes. Renegades is out on DVD, and it stars a plethora of well-known talent from the US and UK. One of the stars, Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott, tells me all about her role and what it was like working with some of these legends. Next, I chatted with Mike Bubbins, one of Wales' funniest comedians. Now on tour, he's doing a few nights at the Glee Club in Cardiff. Tuesday, 28th March, appears sold out, but the following night [Wednesday] has a few tickets remaining. I shall see you there! Have a great March, and see you all next month! Carl Marsh Twitter - @InTheWordsOf_CM YouTube - InTheWordsOf
Renegades Carl Marsh
Your role in 'Renegades' could not be - on paper - more different than your last acting role in 'Nemesis', yet the Police Officer you play in 'Renegades' seems to not be whiter than white, perhaps with more to give in any potential sequels to this movie? Jeanine Nerissa Sothcott One of the things that drew me to the character is that she has a real journey – she is frustrated by the obstacles of
