    NEW BOOK - CAN YOU CONTRIBUTE?

    Hello again. Great day - just been given some amazing on-set photos by a very kind actor. Feel quite sad looking through them, knowing the series has ended and that the cast and crew will never re-unite. Rather poignant. And now I would love your opinions on the character of Foggy and, of...

    SUMMER WINE BOOK - CAN YOU HELP?

    Good afternoon everyone. Work is progressing on the book, and I would like to ask you for your opinions. Today: Cyril Blamire. I want to know how the character is viewed by fans of the series. Did you find him funny? Irritating? For me, he was a lesser version of Foggy... many similarities, but...

    SUMMER WINE BOOK - CAN YOU HELP?

    Has anyone taken a great location shot that would be suitable for the book? Maybe in Holmfirth, or of any of the locations used during the series? If you have one or some and are happy for your photo to be in the book - credited, of course - could you let me take a look? Thank you!

    SUMMER WINE STARS

    Thank you barmpot. Your son"s achievements are inspirational. You must be very proud of him. Interesting that he too enjoyed LOTSW, just as my younger daughter did. Turns out she is a natural actress - her performance in the film was (if I may say so) superb. And npw your son is also performing...

    SUMMER WINE STARS

    I have copies of the film on Blu-ray disc. Do you have a player? If so, perhaps the forum moderator or site owner could facilitate a way of me getting a copy to you without you having to publicise your home address?

    SUMMER WINE STARS

    Thank you. Your grandchildren sound wonderful. Please pass on my very best wishes. The film was very much an attempt to raise awareness of autism. But it has only been seen locally and I sometimes wonder if I should try to get it viewed by a wider audience. My younger daughter was only 11-ish...

    SUMMER WINE STARS

    Thank you for your kind words. It was a sizeable project indeed, and we also 'roped in' our local MP, our vicar, members of the community and, as mentioned, Scotland's First Minister! It was all filmed in 4k and we were able to sell a handful of copies on Blu-ray. By doing this, we could show...

    SUMMER WINE STARS

    Thankyou both. Other contributors to the film were Josh Widdecombe, James Acaster, Fred Macaulay, Hal Cruttenden, John Conteh, Nicola Sturgeon, Francoise Pascal, plus Carrie and David Grant. I think Russ Abbot's scene turned out to be the most popular.

I just wanted to relay to you all a story from late last year. We decided to make a Christmas comedy film, with our two young...
