Posted April 3, 201411 yr westendproducer @westendproducer 49m No idea who this person is (not Darius obviously} With the marvellous @DariusCampbell at @ScoundrelsUK last night. A lovely man. And bloody tall. #dear pic.twitter.com/RMfDBLq1r8
April 4, 201411 yr Good to hear D's already got something else in the pipeline Whatever it is album, tour, new show, another musical maybe. Whatever it is really looking forward to finding out about it. Maybe be able to go see it this time if it is a new show. :dance: Just listened to it again. Im sure the woman at the end asks if it's another musical and he says no so wonder what it could be then :thinking: Edited April 4, 201411 yr by polly
April 4, 201411 yr actually she says its not strictly is it haha. Now that would be good Edited April 4, 201411 yr by polly
April 5, 201411 yr Author No it wouldn't I'm hoping for much better than that - well, in my opinion anyway Edited April 5, 201411 yr by megham
April 5, 201411 yr No it wouldn't I'm hoping for much better than that - well, in my opinion anyway Had chance to think about it last night there are loads of better things D could do. I dont think D would do a show like that anyway and i do rely hope its NOT another reality show. Im thinking it might be something else in the theatre time will tell.
April 5, 201411 yr Is that what she says. I was trying to make it out, but couldn't get it. Roll on Tuesday. Sue

April 7, 201411 yr Had chance to think about it last night there are loads of better things D could do. I dont think D would do a show like that anyway and i do rely hope its NOT another reality show. Im thinking it might be something else in the theatre time will tell. I can't think of any current reality show, not even Strictly, which could distract Darius from the album. That said, I get the feeling that the album is not what he was talking about in the video. Surely he would have been able to make a general statement of intent about it (and the tour) without giving away any confidential info. After all, Robert Lonsdale was able to say he'd got a lead role in a new British TV series long before details were announced and his name was added to the cast list. I don't imagine that Darius would want to jump into another musical in the West End or a touring production just yet. However, I think he would, if he was offered one on Broadway or elsewhere in North America. I also keep thinking back to the coincidental timing of a tweet about Darius getting a lead film role and him taking a phone call IN THE This Morning STUDIO that very day - the day he and Robert sang live. The tweet has never been taken down but the link in it doesn't work. Maybe someone let the cat out of the bag too soon or maybe he/she got it wrong. I rather hope it's the former, even although he'd have to go back to America for a while and the album timetable would slip again. I'm sure Darius would love to add a film to his acting experience. Whatever he's up to, we should know soon. OT Natasha has a recurring role in a new ABC comedy pilot with Karen Gillan who was in Doctor Who and is now doing well in Hollywood too. I hope it gets picked up in May Looking forward to Robert in The Interceptors on BBC1. Sounds good.
April 7, 201411 yr Dont think he would have to sign a contract for the album or tour. Im thinking theatre or a tv or film role now that would definatly be good :D Although cant help thinking that if it is film it cud b the 1 he was going to produce with natasha. Hope not :( Edited April 7, 201411 yr by polly
April 8, 201411 yr Apparently Darius caught up with Brian Hill yesterday and they talked about about various ideas for working together . Hey I'm an optimist I'm counting that as a sign that Darius intends to deliver a 2014 tour of some kind. Isn't Darius supposed to be taking a break just now?
April 8, 201411 yr Author Have I mentioned that I hate Big Band Music? Brian had talked to Darius before about doing a children's audio book for him. I'd like that to be what they talked about Edited April 8, 201411 yr by megham
April 8, 201411 yr I'm afraid that the 3rd album is what it is. There definitely must be some big band influence because Stuart drafted in the Hot City Horns for some songs. I just hope there's some real Darius in there too, something upbeat or a ballad or two like the b sides. I'd prefer him to tour with a group perhaps augmented with a couple of brass players. Wouldn't it be great if Karl and Spence could join him. Darius has a great speaking voice. I'm surprised he hasn't been asked to do narration or voiceover work b efore.
April 8, 201411 yr Author He was trying to get his group together when FHTE started. With all the extra rehearsals of changes, he just couldn't do it at the time. He was still thinking about where and when to do a one off gig for us all.
April 9, 201411 yr I have always though Darius' voice would be great for voice overs and the such like, I would buy an audio book if he was narrating for sure - here we are Wednesday..common D let it out of the bag :)
April 9, 201411 yr Patience is a virtue and with the weight of waiting D fans have had to bear, we should have a diploma if not a master's in it!
April 9, 201411 yr At least we don't have to interpret reams of small print and legalese and then negotiate. Maybe being in the loop (noose) isn't that great either. Edit- I meant to say there's a short video of red carpet interviews at the Opera Awards. Darius is in it but I think he only talked about the awards being a good thing - that's paraphrased of course. I'll try to find and post the link later. Edited April 9, 201411 yr by Baytree
