Mate, I'd take out the colour photos and put some more b & w ones in. They worked a treat. Nice little trailer.

Not bad at all, though I'd use a different font other than Chiller at the end.

I agree with Frank - the monochrome is weirder and more dramatic. The modern colour pics seem a little too mundane. Otherwise - great work!

Seriously, it's a good un. Richard Ebbert out

Frank, Kate, Mark, and anyone else who fancies being Barry Norman: is this better?

I think that's much better, Gary!

And Frank - I said unmarked bills. Don't make me send Lord P round to collect it for me.

I liked that version better, definitely. I don't know if I'm being too picky, but the house they "see" on the website isn't the same one that we get the newspaper headlines from.

Very good though, I liked it.

No, Michael Winner. There are similarities there, I mean in style...all you need now is an author's photo for the inside back leaf: Fry surrounded by a bevy of scantily clad women while he wields his Cuban cigar all over the show, shouting...'action me lovelies, action.'

I liked it Gary! No particular comments, though the music was appropriately creepy.

Very nice trailer, yes. Mixing the uncanny with the challenges of, er, difficult family situations – I'd like to see de Richleau cope with that one.

Kate - Lord P never did bother coming round to collect those unmarked bills...he lost his bottle or what?

Oh, you won't actually SEE him, Frank. But you'll definitely know he's been.

Yes, it might the minutest, but visible particles of crushed velvet he'll leave behind, or the dead rose left on my pillow...

Yes, a dead Rose. Like Billy Piper in Dr Who. A whole girl on your bed. Dead.

Alas, and thankfully, I did not get the Rose connection to Dr. Who. Oh, yes, I did. Her character's name was Rose...and me having never watched a single episode of Dr Who (I mean the latest batch of regenerated chaps).
