Watch out, Clooney
Trash upped the glamour ante last week, starring in his first movie. I played a handsome, suave, sexy barman (my interpretation of the role, anyway) in a British film called Junkhearts. Actress Romola Garai got quite a shock when she saw me behind the bar as she sashayed in for her first day’s filming. “I can’t accept a drink off the man who’s going to be reviewing the performance,” she protested.

Fumbling for drugs in her handbag, the star of many a costume drama remarked: “Makes a nice change – usually I’m struggling with a parasol or corset.” Junkhearts also stars Eddie Marsan, Tom Sturridge and Shaun Dooley and follows con-artist drug dealers taking over (”cuckooing”, it’s called) an innocent victim’s council flat. The director making her feature debut is Tinge Krishnan, who looked remarkably calm to me, and clearly has an eye for hot acting talent. She said I was wonderful.
