All we needed was one male actor to complete our jigsaw... a simple part, not much too ask for, someone young... 18-25, someone dashing, someone with a hint of stage presence, someone athletic, someone who can do a fine Scottish accent one that would put dear Mel to shame, someone who'll wear the tartan proud... someone who can play our out of the closet Highlander... we thought we had that man, and then...gone with the wind, but another sprang forth... oh come on down my man! Hope it doth spring eternal! But then....a shadow fading into the night... Wait! Silence... so total being....what now Grim? How the hell should I know? I'm only the bloody director! Can I be at fault if there's no one in this town that can step forward and say...'I can be that Mon!' The search for Gerald continues....once again we ask you the ITA bretheren, to spread the word..A lad in sane are gathering at Bannockburn, they wait in the freezin cold for Gerald to appear and warm the very cockles of their hearts... if you run into Gerald...or someone who bares a close resemblance....tell him we need him reet noo! We've got broth and haggis too...e-mail: johnnygrim@optusnet.com.au or phone 9355 5591.
