How to be a sci-fi actor

[WhiteCrow]

Probably a bit late to mention this - but the sci-fi actors workshop is shown at 9pm tonight on BBC 4 - I've caught it before and found it quite amusing.

If it's the programme with Nigel Planer, I saw it when it was first on, and I didn't really laugh much I have to say... was nice to see the occasional Dr Who clip though.

Yes - it's not exactly laugh out loud funny, but I found it quite clever and witty in what it did. It's like the synthesis of 1000 SFX interviews and DVD commentaries of actors who never quite made the big time, and are now tied to a single genre show.

But comedy is very subjective, I don't find Little Britain, My Family or My Hero very funny, but obviously the masses do.

And more fool them.

(Little Britain's not bad, tho )

Don't knock the masses as long as they're still turning into the new Who!
