Ok then.
If you had to throw away all your movies, but one, which one would you keep?
Sonatine would be the boring answer.
Withnail & I or
The Searchers might figure too - I'd hide the discs in the
Sonatine box.
What five actors/actresses would you like to meet, and why? (Only five.)
Mira Sorvino - To ask her when she's finally gonna say "yes".
Paul Sorvino - To ask the question in the traditional way if the above doesn't go too well.
Robert DeNiro - To ask him if he's given up.
Hmmmm, this is getting hard. I'm not really a 'meet an actor' kinda person. Onwards!
Jimmy Nesbitt - I wanna see how his hair restore treatment is going. Actually, I met Jimmy Nesbitt last Friday night and already know the answer. Ermmm, when I say 'met' I really meant to say 'was in the same room as'. I'm no good at this name-dropping lark.
Tom Cruise - I want to see if I can jump over him (standing up, of course) from a standing start. Even someone in my advanced stage of decrepitude should be able to manage it...
Where all would you like to travel to? (Top five locations.)
Hmmmm. Easter Island, Japan, India, Benidorm, Muff (it's in Donegal!
)
What are your top five favorite songs?
I'm afraid I can only answer what's in my head at the minute (and I've always got 5 or 10 songs floating around in it - there's space to spare).
#1 A football chant sung by the Northern Ireland supporters to the Denmark fans at a recent(ish) international. To the tune of
She'll be Coming Round The Mountain: "You can stick your Danish Pastries up your arse!" - Believe me, I was singing this all day yesterday. Lord knows why.
#2
Most of the Time - by Bob Dylan from his massively underrated
Oh Mercy album. I think it's the best song on the record, was listening to the album the other day and came to the conclusion that it deserves mention with his more recognised classics.
#3
Trick of the Light by The Triffids. The best band you never heard...
#4
Johnny Jukebox by The Radiators From Space. As above. They kinda reformed a few years ago (basically Phil Chevron from The Pogues and some other old Dublin punks - think The Boomtown Rats. Only good) but I've not caught them yet.
#5
Raynard The Fox by Julian Cope. Drugs are bad, kids. But fun.
Yikes, there's another five a'coming. Nurse!
