Closer

My anonymity grows.

It seems Abi Titmuss is running all over town, completely failing to mention me at every opportunity. After not being mentioned in Hello! and The Sun, I’ve now not been mentioned in Closer.

Okay, okay, so the Hello! article was actually Adele Silva not mentioning me. Meaning, technically, Abi’s only given two interviews which doesn’t really count as running all over town; but it’s still moderately exciting to see yourself failing to be mentioned in national publications. I really am on track for no one knowing who I am in the next few months.

In fact, I’d go so far as predicting that by Christmas, my anonymity will have grown to such proportions even Mandy will never have heard of me.

Truly we live in wonderous times.

    And you are… ?

    No idea.

  3. ContainsNuts Says:

    Are you staying well away from the filming or will you pop along? Given, that they let you in Mr Anonymous.

  4. phillbarron Says:

    I’ll wear a name badge, that should sort it out.

    I don’t know … I don’t like being on set, it’s boring. On the other hand, I do know some of the cast and crew so … maybe. There are a couple of cast members who’ve popped up on several things I’ve been involved with, people I really should make the effort to meet.

    On a third hand … there might be something good on telly.

    Third hand? I didn’t realise this was that sort of site.

  6. phillbarron Says:

    It’s not. I do literally have a third hand.

    I was a twin until about 20 weeks, at which point I seem to have absorbed the other fella.

    Or lass.

    Anyway, I have this vestigial hand underneath my right armpit which is a little creepy. It’s sort of part of my body and sort of sticks out. It’s not right, whichever way you look at it.

    If I ever have a CAT scan they’ll probably find teeth in my brain.

    So it was YOU, Barron, who kept mysteriously tapping me on the shoulder in the pub, t’other night. I suppose you think that’s funny, eh? Eh?

  8. phillbarron Says:

    Yes, it was me.

    But it wasn’t my hand.

    And yes, I thought it was hilarious.

    Phil,
    I do apologise for not mentioning you. However as you seem to be so excited by it, i will endeavour to mention you even less in all forthcoming interviews.
    Congratulations on a great script by the way, i love it and can’t wait to start work on the film.

    The real Abi Titmuss is in da house - how exciting! :D

  11. Jason Arnopp Says:

    Tremendous! You’ve got to love La Titmuss.

  12. phillbarron Says:

    Yes, except, no.

    I’m not entirely convinced that’s the real Ms Titmuss.

  13. phillbarron Says:

    Oh wait, maybe it is?

    Fuck, I’m confused now.

  14. Jason Arnopp Says:

    Let’s just tell ourselves it was her. It’ll be much more enjoyable that way.

  15. phillbarron Says:

    It is her, I just checked.

    Sorry.

  16. michellelipton Says:

    She looks like that AND she’s funny. It’s just not fair…

  17. Jason Arnopp Says:

    I knew it!

  18. crustynomad Says:

    I would just like to say that I’ve been under Abi Titmuss (even if only as a comment on a random blog post)

    …it still counts…
