The Blackening - a film we may get to **star** in

'Your dad must be a proud man...'

This is the line all (female) shetlanders are muttering at the moment. Why? its the line that any of us lucky local women might - just might - get to utter on the film they're auditioning for at the moment. Many of us have had shots of saying it in different accents, dialects and with emphiasis on different words. Did I mention that someone we all know was phoned up and asked to come in to rehearse and act the line? sorry Ruthodanort did not mean for that to come out. It just slipped out. Did I mention I did not get asked to come back to have a shot? no? well there you go.(weep) some of us are destined for stardom.(I'm not jealous) some of us are only destined to make the tea. (howl) But will she remember her humble origins?

There is a picture of Lerwick street (allegedly) in the Shetland Times. (Lerwick Trevor could make a blockbuster film too.)

Its all very exciting - a film, on our doorstep, using local folk - almost like Local Hero - until you read the article in the Shetland Times which says it is a dark and violent piece, with pagan elements. However the casting director says this isn't true - the reporter got it wrong - so you can't believe everything you read!

this is a very important day - Monday - I can't say why, I'll just have to leave a code to be cracked by the most intelligent of us:

HBTY, HBTY,HBDR, HBTY

no prize for guessing who and what?

Synchronicity City... is this film anything to do with the Blackening custom as described by Hermit to me last week? I'd never heard the expression before and here it is again. Spooky! BTW, Happy Birthday to Ruthodanort, hope you have a good one!

Jill from EK


Go on then, spill the beans, WHICH BIRTHDAY????

Flying Cat from curiosity cott


FC, do you no think that wid be unladylike to admit to the actual number?

Ruthodanort from Unst


I am not so sure that her father is proud of her at the moment, but he has put himself up for the Council so is otherwise engaged. They are digging up Lerwick Street at the moment, I could help they fill in the holes!

Lerwick Trevor from Lerwick


Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday Ruthodanort, Happy birthday to you.

Bond, James Bond from A Secret Location


But you're just a young thing. Look at that beach babe photo on muness....barely out of pigtails and knee socks! Isn't Lerwick Street amazing...there she is being dug up, and yet she still manages to get her byline everywhere in the ShetlandTimes. Which we get...and read avidly every week...somehow, it just gets more and more interesting!

Flying Cat from an admiring glance


Ooooooooooooooooh. Bond, singing to me. All my dreams coming true at once. (Ok, thats a gross exaggeration, but it was nice. Tusen takk.)

Ruthodanort from Unst


It was really me that did the Bond thing Ruthiebabe, so don't get too excited. And anyway James Bond is a fictional character.

Tws from Lewis


Easy girl!

Muness from Baltasound


James Bond is real - I know this for a fact. who was it in the films then if it wasn't him really? He is so brave, so cooool and so sooo sexy. and he has a brill car. Actually in one of the films I starred in one of the leading roles - I was the voluptious dark skinned woman who shot his then girlfriend and bagged off with James (jimmy, as I call him) and... and....

scallowawife from in a dark room


You couldn't get away with comments like this on other island blogging blogs. Is this smut or lust Scallowawife? More sedatives required I feel.

Muness from Fetlar


Oh TWS, it's probably just as nice having you sing me a song as Bond. You seem like a nice bloke, and you take the bother to comment on blogs in birthday-esque style. Which is more than Daniel Craig, or Connery, or even Brosnan has done for me, so Tusen Takk!

Ruthodanort from Unst


Oh dear I'm not sure what's scarier now, Ruthiebabe being nice or otherwise?

Tws from Unsure


It now seems that The Blackening will be postponed until September. It isnt dark enough in Shetland in May/June. Well, there's a surprise!

Soljey from Shetland Mainland


A film about Lerwick Trevor's life? Now, that would be an eye opener. Certainly not suitable for children...

Deb Acle from Further afield than Shetland


Oh sorry I mis-read that as A film about Lerwick Trevor's w***. Which is quite appropriate really. (ST Friday 13th April page 22). *smug purr*

Flying Cat from EffCee & The Detectives


I am informed that there is also, alledgedly, a picture of Scallowawife on page 22. I can neither confirm nor deny this.

Lerwick Trevor from Holding magnifying glass


If it is a film about Lerwick Trevor, can I be the one in the Bristol Cities?

Tws from Getting into The Zone


no - unless thats me being resuscitated after a good night out? I have no memory of it anyway.

scallowawife from in da shetland times page 22


Sure you don't mean WITH, Tws? Gosh really. LT?

Flying Cat from Cheshire Grin


I agree with Deb Acle. Would a film about Lerwick Trevor's life be a retrospective? In that case be afraid boys and girls, be very afraid...

Anne Gwish from As far away as possible


A film about Lerwick Trevor's 'wife'? did I miss something flying cat? Has he got another wife already? I thought he no longer had a wife since she left him?

Deb Acle from Keeping well back


Yes, as ever you are correct EffSea,but this is not going to happen. Who are all these peoples with funny ( and not so funny ) names??

Tws from Whatsgoingonhere


Please, please, no more wives, the strain is far too much. The dog and cats will do just fine thankyou very much, so there!

Lerwick Trevor from Hiding in the dark


Tws I was thinking maybe the peeps with funny/not-so-funny names might be on the Lillian Gish....

Flying Cat from the booze cupboard


Aha, I sea EffSea, they may have partaken some illicit firewater, that I can no longer drink of myself, but I have memories. Which is why I no longer get Lillian Gished, or one reason??

Tws from Unknown ( even to me )


...memories are made of gish....
