Preston

Thank you so much for all the videos, pictures, they were fantastic and it felt like being there.

Darius at Comedy of Errors. perhaps he is thinking of adding Shakespeare to his repertoire.

Tweet on D facebook - James martin and friends - saturday night live - 3lst july in aid of princes trust - marriott hotel, Bristol. Darius will be performing songs from his forthcoming album.

Well he certainly believes in variation - from £300 a ticket plus vat for the grand pris ball to now a free ticketed event for crewe carnival.

Thanks spam, you beat me to it. I wondered why things had gone quiet, where will that leave his career.

I have to agree with PIP on this because the POSTOS phase of promotion has now passed to some extent which is a shame as I have met several people who say they loved him because of that programme but what will they expect of an album, not pop I feel and therein lies the difficulty of promotion in which direction. they liked the real tone of his voice and I have to agree. It doesnt mean opera but I hope he sticks with the michael buble type he has mentioned in the past.His real voice has such a rich sound which I feel to the gen public does not come over in pop songs, but the decision will be his, just dont want him to get it wrong. I just wonder how he will get the promoting of it across.

I see the daily mail managed to get the word reject in the report and to get his surname wrong in spite of them doing a report on his change of name. I also think she is a stunning girl., wonder what she sees in Guy ritchie.

I agree.

Thanks, Ive seen him on and off on the opera season for BBC 4, last night being one he was on called what makes a great tenor.

We have a lovely small theatre here completely refurbished (I believe it is listed)and the Krankies are appearing on a summer show here but dont think they are the headliners.we have a similar theatre in Torquay completely refurshied from a church, it is lovely.

Well Im glad its not the Krankies although I have nothing against them and they live down here in Torquay.

Thanks for the post about the carers, I had not seen it and welcome back Baytree.

I was wondering if the ayr post would review it but have nt found anything yet.Glad people enjoyed it, sounded like an amazing long set.thanks to Spam, for the pictures.

Thanks meg,. he does seem, to be staying close to home, could it be a scottish producer for the album.

I watched all of it and me thinks all those people mentioned above need glasses. The standard this year alround apart fro m Uk was better, however what stood out was the stage production of the other countries numbers compared to uk which was pathetic especially as it was a BBC production, it was more like an ITV production, amateurish dancers, costumes etc and on top a poor song with no go in it.

There are a lot of performances, twice a day most days including sundays.

The 3 a.m girls daily mirror have acknowledged he was there with a video of the arrivals and there is a very slight snatch of him signing autopgraphs and it is slight still better than nothing.

Sir Ian Mclellan played widow twankie in alladin in 2004, 2005. He has numerous acting awards, maybe its part of becoming a well rounded performer, to do lots of various things. Darius must have his reasons as its a long time ahead and he would expect other things to come up yet he has chosen this. It is not a long run .

from wikipedia - stewart granger - He was the great-great grandson of the opera singer Luigi Lablache and the grandson of the actor Luigi Lablache. When he became an actor, he was obliged to change his name in order to avoid being confused with the American actor James Stewart. (Granger[1] was his Scottish grandmother's maiden name.

Sorry meg,. I was referring to cheryl cole.

Do you know I have always thought he looked like Stewart Granger, loved him in Scaramouche, could see D in that part. Thanks for the pictures Meg, they are wonderful and he looks wonderful. It looks also very spectacular.

Yet they play other tunes that havent got to no.1. Why does he have to prove himself again and again yet others who are mediocre and dont have any versatility are fawned over, a certain female comes to mind, it cant just be the looks as he wins hands down in that department as well.

Eli stone is being reshown next month on channel Fiver - freeview 30..

I must say I dont like the slicked backhair, too "Grease" for my liking.

Thanks meg for pictures and link. Loved the write up re the workshop and think it was right up his street, he should do more. Faryl said - She added: "We were only supposed to do a question and answer session but when you get Darius involved everyone ends up singing.
