AGWLBP CONTENT -

RE: MISUNDERSTANDING WITH BRUCE’S ANGELS WEBPERSONS

Let this serve as a formal retraction, on advice of my council, to the affected parties on the Bruce’s Angels fan site. My most recent remarks were made without malice and forethought; but they were emotional rather than reasoned responses.
The bottom line here is that both the AGWLBP and Bruce’s Angels sites are Bruce Payne fan sites. This is the reason for their existence and I temporarily lost my focus of this fact. A fan site is obligated to celebrate and promote the celebrity; in this case Bruce Payne, and to try to put him in the best possible light. Conflict between sites is not appropriate in this forum.  I encourage the sharing of web content resources with other Bruce Payne fan sites. I only ask that when content is used from one site to another that the source be clearly listed, credit be given when it is due and permission be sought when appropriate.
Please accept my apologies for losing site of the real goal and for spewing forth an emotional rant.
I realize that we share a common respect and admiration for Bruce Payne. I do not wish to pollute this sea of appreciation for one of the Industry’s finest actors. Carry on in good health.

Sincerely,
AGWLBP

I've been privy to viewing the long awaited Interview that Bruce as done for the UK site. It will be a treat for ALL the fans indeed. You'll learn a lot of new stuff. BUT REMEMBER it's COPYRIGHTED to the BP.CO.UK site and none of it can be quoted or re-worded or referenced on any other web site. It's now ONLINE!

There is a very wonderful wallpaper was made by a gal in the Ukraine, which features an image that I purchased. It was passed over to me to post and I have also placed her link to her Bruce Payne site. It's not in English, but it's good to know BP fans from other parts of the world.

I have a few NEW AND RARE things to post soon. So come back. I don't have a lot of time anymore, but when this site gets updated, it is indeed a treat! I no longer manage nor run this site, I'll just be back to visit and update now and again when I can.

For those who are curious, that isn't Bruce in that Verizon commercial. It would have been fun to see Bruce in it. I have a few photos from Messages that I will be posting soon, he looks interesting in that.

Lucy, Steph, Stacey, Sandi, Debbie, Sarah, Lynne, Amanda, Bernie and everyone else, I hope you are doing okay and keeping well.

Here's the wallpaper image that CMOON created And here's CMOON's Link: http://brucepayne.fastbb.ru/index.pl

NYT Celebrates 50 Years of Star Support - Stars including Sir Ian McKellen, Timothy Spall, Diana Quick, Paula Wilcox, Bruce Payne, Jonathan Wrather, newsreader Krishnan Guru-Murthy and Little Britain’s Matt Lucas and David Walliams were on hand this afternoon to launch the National Youth Theatre’s 50th anniversary programme.

Currently in Birmingham with the stage version of their hit TV sketch show, Lucas and Walliams lent their support via live video link. Little Britain would not exist without the NYT, said Walliams, as the two comedians met in 1990 while members.

After the presentation of the anniversary programme by NYT artistic directors Paul Roseby and John Hoggarth – which will include several major new productions, a mammoth “playathon”, “God Save the Teen”-themed flash mob spectacles across the country and specially commissioned new writing from contemporary dramatists including Rebecca Lenkiewicz, Samuel Adamson and Stella Duffy – nearly 100 current and former NYT members took to the stage for a massive group photo. Other high-profile names who gave their backing in a special birthday film were actors Jeremy Irons, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael York and Con O'Neill.

he National Youth Theatre of Great Britain was founded in 1956 by Michael Croft, the company's director until his death in 1986. The company initially played in the East End of London but proved so successful that young people began applying to join it from all over the country. In 1960 the Youth Theatre was given national status and financial support by the Department for Education. Since its foundation, NYT has performed over 270 productions in over 50 cities in eight countries and involved over 120,000 young people (aged between 13 and 21) in the UK. During this anniversary year, it aims to work with 24,000 young people across its range of activities and give over 200 performances of 64 productions in 82 venues.

Speaking at today’s launch event, Paul Roseby also encouraged people to donate money to help fund NYT’s ongoing programme. He reminded the audience: “We are a charity. We just don’t talk about death and destruction, we talk about life and opportunity.”
