I arrived at highbury and went to film costume and make up at 8am.After a bacon roll and coffee i went into costume,it was set in 1989 so we had to have style from that time,The thing was i only had my shoe's changed to boots haha,im a 1980's reject.
After seeing make up and having some powder put on my face i went to the set at the auld triangle,a pub used by the arsenal fans before match day.There was a lot of waiting around and i drank a couple of coffee's and talked to some of the other extra's.Then i was called to do a scene where im sitting with 3 cast members at a table in the pub and as the lead role comes over i get sprayed in the face with cs gas.But after a few pratice runs my voice was not loud enough,i had to scream out and run out the door.
So another guy got that role.My scene was sitting at a bar table reading a paper,the lead role goes to bar and then one of the other cast shouts him over,its paul ferris the wee man come over.
Then the gas gets sprayed and i just look up with my eyes and then some one walks in pub and i follow with eyes.Then ferris gets called to meet the god father.This scene was shot from the front,behind bar and to the side,it took a while to do.We broke for lunch and i had leek risotto was very nice and had lots of coffe and bottled water through day.
After lunch we finished off pub scene,the director was pleased with the way i just looked with my eyes and not raising head to much,so that was nice.
Then it was waiting around and then i was told i wouldnt be needed,so i went home at 3pm.
A great day and met a lot of nice extra's and the main cast and director.
