Christopher Eccleston shines in Lennon biopic

Christopher Eccleston in Lennon Naked

We’ve already posted Lennon Naked in the upcoming DVDs section, but we believe it deserves a bit more of a call-out. The telefilm, which covers Lennon’s final years in England, stirred a lot of buzz when the BBC aired it this summer, especially for Christopher Eccleston (Doctor Who). He has already been tipped as the man to beat for the Best Actor Award in next year’s TV BAFTAs. That’s Naoko Mori (Torchwood, Absolutely Fabulous) channeling Yoko Ono. Fans of Lark Rise to Candleford will recognize Claudie Blakeley as Lennon’s first wife, Cynthia. The DVD will follow the premiere on Masterpiece this fall.

Look for us at Comic-Con!

Comic Con 2010 - Look Around You

Look around you! Look around you! Look around you! Have you worked out what we’re looking for? That’s right: it’s our brain. We’re posting this early because starting Wednesday our brain will be at Comic-Con in San Diego for five fun-filled days. This year we’re focusing on Being Human and Look Around You, both of which are releasing in time for Comic-Con (and so available for purchase and signing at the BBC America booth #3629). The booth also contains a cunning little shop of selected DVDs and merchandise, including convention exclusives. Thursday is Thirst-for-Knowledge Day with Look Around You creators Robert Popper and Peter Serafinowicz signing at 2:30-3:30pm and regrouping at 5pm to take your questions in Room 6A. Thursday night from 8-11pm BBC America will premiere Doctor Who’s two-part finale and Being Human’s Season Two opener before the channel airs them. Friday is Being Human, with all the stars – Russell Tovey, Leonora Crichlow, Aidan Turner and Sinead Keenan plus creator Toby Whithouse signing at the BBC America booth from 2-3pm and taking the stage in Room 6A for fan questions and a special exclusive inside peek at 6-7pm. But the fun doesn’t stop there. The BBC America booth is open for your questions and comments all five days.  For daily coverage of BBC America at Comic-Con including exclusive talent interviews, click here!
