A busy day at Facelook Towers. We been having a brain storm for some new TV Shows. It has been quite intense. Danny has been watching Jeremy Kyle on his iMightPhone (bought it off a guy down the Market), Goon is busy building his own Xbox (saw an ad in Exchange & Mart apparently – all the components you need, sent to you in an envelope for a fiver), and no one has seen Marc since 2010. It’s been a bit of a challenge as you can imagine, but we have shortlisted some below. • A show for people who are dieting called ‘Meal or no Meal’ • A show for Plumbers called ‘The Weakest Sink’ • A new show presented by Dr Gillian Mckeith called ‘Have I Got Poohs For You’ • A Documentary about Shaun Ryder and N-Dubz called ‘Dappy Mondays’ • A new series of NewsFight where Sir Trevor McDonald takes on Krishnan Guru-Murthy over 12 Rounds • A show called ‘Only Horses and Fools’ about people with low IQ’s riding horses for the first time. • Never the mind DoorLocks – A reality TV show for burglars • NewsHound – like news round only the news read by Dogs. Every one’s a winner!..however, we were kind of thinking maybe we should give you guys a chance to send in your ideas to Facelook. So we have developed ‘Facelook For You!, a forum for you to send in your ideas etc. So please feel free to mail us on:
it_will_never_happen@facelookproductions.co.uk
We look forward to hearing from you!!
One love

An emergency meeting of the Facelook Team was called yesterday. There were issues to be discussed and we were the Team to discuss them. The meeting was tense and fraught, tempered only by large quantities of Morgan Spiced Rum and Cider. It seemed there were several items to be discussed such as:
· Meerkats…are they really that cute?
· Where did the penknife gets its name from?
· Is Uncle Steve a good Pool player or not?
· Danny’s Stag Weekend…. Stag Weekend?...or just an excuse to get a load of blokes together to play dominoes and drink a couple of pints of Old Foaming Dog’s Bollock?
It is fair to say that no conclusions were made as the Morgan’s Spice Rum took its toll, but there are plans for a second Summit Meeting next weekend. Rumour is that TV War Correspondent Kate Adie will be covering the meeting for both ITV and CBeebies.
Until then

Well it's here, the New Year. My guess is that its gonna be pretty much the same as the last one..but still, we try and move on. Firstly we'd like to apologise for the failure to complete Sereis 1, but Marc's demands have just become impossible now. Requesting someone to personally take the shells off all his M&M's was a step too far, Danny stepped down in the 'Facelook Diva of 2010' competition as he realised he'd never attain the dizzy heights that Marc had. The other problem we've been having is Goon's repeated insistence on sending us E Mails and Texts in Binary. It's all too much at the moment. We will keep you posted on the next Chapter as soon as we can. On behalf of the guys I would like to wish you all a Happy New 2011 and thank you all for your continued support!
Best Wishes
Danny, Mike, Goon, and Marc

Many apologies, its been a while, however we have been busy boys. The final Facelook (Episode 6) has seemingly proved impossible to film. There have been several industrial disputes whilst attempting to film the show. At one point our whole Film Crew walked off set purely because Danny and Marc insisted on being called 'Sir'. Negotiations between EQUITY and the Film Crew's representatives Michael Corleone Associates Inc. are still ongoing. One thing we can say is that the irons we have in the fire this Winter are keeping us very warm! So in the meantime...a special Christmas message from our Managing DirectorChristmas is coming and the goose is getting fat,
I don’t often send a card to an ugly tw4t
But internet’s cheap and times are hard
So here’s your f’’king Christmas card.
B’ah Humbug!

Merry Christmas and have a great 2011 from all at Facelook Productions Ltd.

Episode 5 of Facelook TV was put on line on 20th June 2010. Click on the link below to view it!
16th June 2010
Facelook 5 has just been finished and edited and will be available for viewing on 21st June 2010. It is hoped that the final episode of Series 1 will be finished and broadcast by the end of July. It is time for us to think of future projects, including Series 2 of Facelook TV. The boys are currently trying to enjoy the World Cup, but it has to be said it has been pretty dire stuff so far except for the lovely sound of the vuvuzela! Still, every game gives me an excuse for declaring it 'Miller' time!
Until next time...ciao beni

Tense times at Facelook at the moment. Despite the imminent filming of Episode 5 (very very soon!), there has been major disharmony in the camp. Some may think this is due to artistic differences, or maybe that Cahill has been nicking Danny's boxers off the washing line again....but no...the simple truth is that all is far from well 'in-house'. The reason?...Football. There are those among our happy throng who support Cardiff City (Mike, Goon, and Cahill), and those who support Millwall (Danny). Those of you who keep a keen eye on the game will know that Cardiff sadly lost their Play Off final, whilst Millwall won theirs. Its causing pain for some and joy for others. Goon hasnt been seen since his altercation with two old ladies in Blackpool shirts on Wembley Way after the match, Mike is rumoured to have given up watching football altogether and has bought an allotment instead, and Cahill has been looking for solace in the bottom of whisky bottles all over South Wales. Danny however, is a very very happy boy.

The boys are warming up for Episode 5 now. Let's hope it's a bit of a smoother operation than 4. The filming of 4 was a logistical nightmare with Cahill throwing various strops about not being able to turn up for filming. That was the least of our problems though. Technical issues have prevented us from uploading EP4 onto You Tube. It seems we may have been over zealous in our recording of the show! Still, here it is for those who havent seen it - Oh yeah, I forgot to mention..there are some extras at the end!

Its monday then. What joy! The boys filmed Episode 4 of Facelook at the weekend (see pics below). However, punctuality is alien to one of the boys (I aint mentioning no names....Cahill). Still, I suppose genius is worth waiting for! The show should be on line by today, there have been some technical problems at the editing stage mind. Not much else to say except that we are now collecting some great out-takes or 'bloopers' as they say. Watch out for them!!
Until next time, Ciao!!

Well it's been a while since the last blog. Just had a mail from the Bush (no, not the Australian one- that would be silly). Apparently the poor fella is suffering a broken rib, however he has sold his car to fund a trip on safari. There are rumours of a Facelook special set in the jungle, although Cahill is scared of spiders apparently. Goon is busy 'networking' at the moment (thats all the info he was willing to give up for the price of a pint). Myself?..been busy with various bits and pieces, however I did manage a nice weekend in London last week with the missus. Facelook Episode 4 is being filmed within the next two weeks now. Looking forward to it myself! - TTFN!
5th February 2010
Well it's here again, Friday. Spoke to the Bush last night and he told me that he had done nothing of interest this week, however he will be in sunny Chaddesley Corbett this weekend getting the sports car MOT’d. Sports car??? that's what he calls it? Goon is in a bit of a strop as he won't be able to watch any Footy in the pubs cos of the 'egg game'! Cahill is having a full body wax apparently, whilst I will sit pensively over a beer and ponder the secrets of the world...and why they call it 'Rush Hour' when in fact no one is rushing anywhere cos of the traffic.
1st February 2010
Well that was some weekend off! Anyway, the boys are now looking to schedule filming of Episode 4 of Facelook. There have been some issues mind. Cahill is playing the Diva again and asking for a Winnebago on set and a bowl of M&M's with all the brown ones taken out. So I need to sit him down and try and talk some sense into him, I mean, if he has to have certain coloured M&M's removed from the bowl surely it would be the red ones that had to go??
Until later
Mike

Weekend off, the boys are taking a well deserved break, a hectic first six months, halfway through series 1 of facelook, pilot episode for sitcom written and web site built. All this on top of the glitzy showbiz and sporting events have earned us a well deserved weekend off. Will update you again next week. Peace out.
