Inside the Bloggers’ Studio part 1
Ahead of tomorrow’s exciting edition of ‘Inside the Actors’ Studio’ featuring legend Michael J. Fox, we’ve decided to make our own interactive version with ArtsWOM acting as a stand in for interviewer James Lipton. Regular viewers of ‘Inside the Actors’ Studio’ will know that a portion of the programme is taken up with James asking the same ten questions to his guest- what we’ve done is ask these ten questions to established film and TV bloggers so we can get to know fans of ‘Inside the Actors’ Studio’ just as well as the actors featured on the programme.
First up is Stuart Heritage from excellent pop-culture site http://www.hecklerspray.com/, where you can find the latest film reviews, tasty celebrity gossip and plenty of music news all delivered with a wry tone and blistering sense of humour.
What is your favourite word?
Subsequent.
What is your least favourite word?
Gash.
What turns you on?
If someone can make me laugh, I’m already won over.
What turns you off?
Noisy eaters.
What sound or noise do you love?
I’ve recently invested in a bright orange ukulele, most to the eternal consternation of everyone within 100 metres of me, so the sound that excites me the most right now is me playing Me And Julio Down By The Schoolyard on my uke all the way through without making a noise like a badger catching its nads in a paper shredder. It doesn’t happen often.
What sound or noise do you hate?
Those geckos that climb around the inside of people’s houses in Australia, in particular when they scream like a grieving mother in the middle of the night and you’re asleep.
What is your favourite curse word?
Bugger. It’s comforting, like something your auntie would say. Or a slightly drunk vicar at a village cricket match.
What profession other than your own would you like to attempt?
It it wasn’t for the 3am alarm call and the constant stink of yeast, I’d love to be a baker. Without wanting to sound too much like a flour-covered ukulele-playing dickhead, I’ve decided that baking bread at home is the best thing ever, and would relish the chance to turn professional. Getting paid to punch dough? How is that not the best thing ever?
What profession would you not like to do?
From a harrowing work experience job as a nipper, it has to be a removal man. Although, on the plus side, the job does seem to allow you to steal as many naked photographs of women from their private collections as you can. And openly buy nasty-looking European porn from garages without a trace of shame, even though there’s a 14-year-old work experience boy standing right next to you at the time.
If Heaven exists, what would you like to hear God say when you arrive at the Pearly Gates?
“Hello dear boy. Now listen, I’m going to overlook all those times that you said I didn’t exist. But just this once. And just for you.”
Thanks very much to Stuart to taking the time to answer our inquisition, especially as he answered so elegantly and entertainingly. ArtsWom feels we have got an insight in to the real Stuart and our blog is all the richer for it.
