Thank you thank you. That was so much fun - what I saw on youtube. And all those screen shots as well. The voice, the occasional inflection on some words. A cheery note in a winter's day.

Many thanks, molsogrrl! So good to see her back. I really miss seeing her on tv, even if I do have to watch on You Tube, as I'm in America.

She's sill hot. And I still love her so. :wub:

Thanks again, molsongrrrl! I finally sat and watched the show. Your efforts are greatly appreciated. Interesting our Mandana plays an ex-model, a has been. Great acting, as usual.

One thing's for sure, she's no longer Nikki Wade.

I look forward to seeing the follow-up to this story.

Wow, I haven't been around in a while, and I had no idea Mandana was in anything, so this is a real treat! I'm downloading the file now. Yipee! I'm also so glad she's working, not just for our sake because we get to see her in stuff, but for her sake as well. I think it's probably torture for an actor to not be working as much as they want to be (I'm presuming she wants to work more, but perhaps that's not the case).

The xcerpt in the episode was one of those nicely compressed bits of storytelling which, in Mandana's hands, gives emotional weight and depth in her expressive way. I couldn't help feeling that the storyline seems to speak of the trials and tribulations of the acting profession especially in thse times which focusses so much on airbrushed perfection or is this me reading too much into it? It is certainly great that she has got more acting work that her talent deserves. I also admire the 'tecky' types who can conjure up these downloads and 'youtube' pieces.

A quick hi to you, Abzug and in answer to your point, an actress friend of mine mentioned to me recently that actors these days are advised to think in terms of a fallback 'secondary occupation' as she has had to do over the years.

I actually felt that way too! It seemed like a commentary on agism in modeling and the acting world.

The other night, I couldn't sleep and I was flipping around on the cable looking for something to watch and I ended up on Turner Classic Movies. A Hope/Crosby road movie was about to begin. The host, who always tells a bit about the movie before it airs, was saying that the movie about to be shown was the last one for Dorothy Lamour.

There would be one last Road movie in 1962, but by then Dorothy was considered too old to be paired with Bing or Bob by Hollywood standards ... even though at the time of the last Road movie she was 48 and Bing and Bob were both 59!

And here I sort of thought that whole age thing was a much more modern concept in Hollywood - clearly I was wrong!

Thanks to the techies and link providers!

I may get a chance to watch if/ when my connection cooperates. But, commenting on the screen caps, she still looks hot, but rather skinny!!!

The second episode Mandana filmed was shown tonight on ITV. We are in the process of getting a clip up (it was a shorter part this episode) and some screen captures, hopefully tonight.

We'll post as soon as we have something available.

I had to post this. I think the prop people rented this tree from the Charlie Brown Christmas special.
