Deborah — Tue, 26 Apr 2011 14:09:36 -0400

Hi Folks,

Although we are still approaching Summer - the wonderful Panto companies are busy putting together the schedule and castings for the 2011-2012 season.

It looks like Julian is scheduled to be appearing in Cinderella at Theatre Royal, Plymouth with Keith Harris & Orville. (Wonder if muddles will be making an appearance too - I hate that duck...!!)

Please see link below for the details for the website that contains all things panto!!

Watch out for Julian on 'A Different Breed' - Wed 20 Apr :) (2 replies)

Glamour Diva — Fri, 15 Apr 2011 18:03:47 -0400

Woop woop woop - and I mean that literally :D

It seems like our lovely Julian will be a guest on Sky's new documentary programme 'A Different Breed'. As you might guess by the title this programme is about some of the furry ones, otherwise known as dogs. As it is hosted by Julian's long-time chum JoAnne Good I'm sure we can expect a hilarious julianishous treat on our small screens.

This will be aired on Sky and I didn't quite get the hang of all the different viewing times which are on offer nor did I quite understand the availability of those different Sky Channels but I am sure you lot will be 'in the know'.

So get your pens out & mark your diaries accordingly:

Click [digiguide.tv] for all the details including a summary of episode no. 3 which is the one in question.

Me personally I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that Julian's adorable dogs i.e. the grand dame called Valerie & that little rascal that is Albie will be making a guest appearance too. >:D<(:P)

Cheers Gwyn xxx B)

Julian's letter to his Sixteen-Year-Old Self (2 replies)

Glamour Diva — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 08:10:55 -0400

Lovely julianishous find when I browsed the net for a bit last night - oh the benefits of finally owning a funky fancy netbook and being able to so whilst being cuddled up in the cushions of my cosy bed. Yeeeha. But I digress ...

I found a feature with extracts from a very special book. Apparently the author, a guy called Joseph Galliano (NOT to be confused with John Galliano!) - has asked a variety of famous people to compose a letter to their very own sixteen-year-old selves. With quite impressive results I must say. (tu)

Nedless to say that I was most gobsmacked by the letter our lovely Julian wrote to himself. Apart from his unique way with words it's yet again brutally honest and as such comes across very personal indeed. Moving and emotional and - it wouldn't be by Julian otherwise - funny in his very special way too.

Have a read here and I can't wait to find out about your opinions. As this is quite a big blog entry you need to scroll down a considerable bit, past other peoples letters, to get to Julian's letter. But as usual - he's worth it :D.

[fashionsmostwanted.blogspot.com]

Also I'm including a link to amazon's website where the aforementioned book is available for purchase. Paul O'Grady is in it too and so is Jackie Collins and more. Stephen Fry too. I'm quite tempted as it seems like an interesting read. The book was published in autumn 2009 so it's still an up-to-date read.

I just wanted to congratulate Julian on your efforts for charity. I've noticed an excellent candleholder that you've designed for the charity the cure for parkinsons trust on sale on Ebay. I hope Clary fans will bid! With red nose day coming up let's all do our best to give to good causes and help Julian raise money for charities like this.

Julian & Tony Blackburn for Red Nose Day (4 replies)

Glamour Diva — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 12:50:06 -0400

As seen on Twitter:

As you probably know Julian will be 'mentoring' BBC Radio 2's very own Tony Blackburn who has taken up the challenge to present a '5-Minute-Stand-Up-Comedy-Routine' competing against some of his colleagues.

The Live Event will be taking place tomorrow, 22 February, at the Comedy Store in London.

There will also be a 3 part Radio Series about it all and the BBC announces a special mini-website too. (BBC please note: We need eye candy to go with the ear candy! ;))

Read all about it here: [www.bbc.co.uk]

Definitely something to keep our eyes peeled for. (:P)

Now let's keep our fingers crossed for Tony but I am sure with a teacher as Julian he'll have entered the Masterclass of Stand-up effortlessly. :D

Just a reminder that Julian will be on Comedy Rocks With Jason Manford, broadcast today, 11 February, at 9.00 pm on ITV 1 >:D<(:D And for those of you who can't get enough of the bonafied Lord of the Mince - there's also a repeat on ITV 2 right after the original airing finishes.

You're totally in for a double treat as in eye-candy and fun. (:P):D

Julian will be doing a bit from the Lord of the Mince tour which is NOT included on the DVD so it's a very very special stand-up routine indeed. One of my favourite bits from the show so I'm best pleased now.

Enjoy!

Me again for a change - temporary LotM News Office set up at Starbucks in Bury St. Edmunds.

I've been browsing the net for some new reviews of the Lord of the Mince shows - unsuccessfully I sadly have to admit.

But oooooooh what I found instead is almost better than a simply review. The Highland News (Scotland - name is a bit of a giveaway lol) have a lovely interview with Julian up PLUS aws a very special treat it comes with an extremely gorgeous picture of the man himself and his beloved doggies. Oooooooh. Cute!

Well it took its time but finally I found the first review of Julian's current Lord of the Mince tour. I wonder where the press is lurking sometimes. And a very lovely and most favourable one it is too.

Here's the Bromsgrove experience ... all written up nicely for you to digest. Enjoy:
[www.redditchstandard.co.uk]

Thank you Redditch Standard person for getting it all right. And for jogging my memory - actually in my tweet about the show I wanted to put after the Julian: And what's the pet's name - Punter: MOUSE bit something along the lines. JC: Do you have any hobbies? Punter: Shedbuilding. Hilarious really.

Thank you Bromsgrove - you've been ... a fantastic audience.

Hi all,

just a very quicky TV alert for Julian Land:

Julian will be promoting his current Lord of the Mince Tour on TV. He's scheduled to appear on ITV1's breakfast television programme 'DAYBREAK' tomorrow - Tuesday - October 12.

So Allison and me are waving good-bye to our lie-in and will have a Julian treat for breakfast instead, yum yum, I think I'd rather like that. (Message to Allison: Wouldn't mind a pot of porrige after he he he.)

You all better tune in to see the yummy yummy Julian - he's worth it.

A new interview (or maybe not???) (1 reply)

Glamour Diva — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 03:14:04 -0400

Hi folks, blame it on my age but I am not sure if we've seen this lovely interview before. Surely, the headline rings a bell and so do some of the main paragraphs of it. But on the other hand I cannot remember at all having read any of Julian's comments about the finished DVD recording. So ... maybe my memory is not deceiving me aftr all .. and this IS a new interview.

Funnily enough I only bothered to click and read because I was intrigued by the 'Midhurst and Petworth' bit wondering where in the UK these obscure sounding places which I've never heard of before would be. Lol. As I said on Twitter: The tour is for sure going to be one big adventure. (:DX(X(

BBC Radio Shropshire - Julian Interview (1 reply)

Glamour Diva — Fri, 24 Sep 2010 02:20:20 -0400

Ah, Julian obviously has started with this special sort of madness otherwise known as tour promotion. I've just found out that he was interviewed for BBC Radio Shropshire's afternoon show hosted by Clare Ashford.

The interview was broadcast today and is available on 'listen again' vias the BBC i-player for 7 days here:

[www.bbc.co.uk]

I haven't had the time to listen to this myself and will probably save it as a treat for tomorrow evening. It's a 2 hours show so not sure how many minutes into the show we need to go to get ear candy in form of Julian's lovely voice.

Enjoy.

Cheers Gwyn xxx B)
