Well the busy week is over, it's been really good. I loved the book, Fighting Pax by Robin Jarvis, it was awesome! the ending couldn't really have been more spectacular! So many great scenes to play so many fantastic characters to try and bring to life. One particular scene had me turning on the waterworks as one of the lead characters is caught in an awful moral dilemma and I am seriously hoping it sounds as good as it felt and I don't come across as a blubbering idiot! The slightly hilarious thing is where of course you have to stop because you're eyes are streaming so much you can't read the words on the page.
We had been offered four days in studio but we were able to cut a whole day off the schedule again and get it done in three. Apparently I hold the record on The Devil in the Marshalsea for managing to record 7 hrs and 20 minutes of usable stuff in a single day :-)
We had a new sound recorder Liam, who was very pleasant and a bit of a Whovian himself so we could chat about geek stuff in the recording breaks, he's taken over from Matt.
So really looking forward to hearing how this one comes out. I certainly hope to use some of the voices on a new audiobook showreel  as they were so wildly different from the usual mixture of regional accents.
Next on the agenda is back to liverpool for more rehearsals of The ghosts of Kirkdale and another day out with the Manchester Regiment on sunday up at Richmond Castle.
