SUTTON PARK SW1 - PART 3, 4, 5 & 6 - AVAILABLE ON YOUTUBE AND VIMEO


Hi,

Just to announce the next episode of SUTTON PARK SW1 is now up and ready to view on both Youtube and Vimeo at the following links:

SUTTON PARK was an ad-lib spoof soap opera about a peculiar place called Sutton Park which was full of evil things and strange people. Between 1992 and late 2000 my friends and I made well over 3000 episodes for no other reason than because it was fun. Nearly 10 years since the last episode was made Sutton Park returns for a new mini-series, set in London and beyond - which catches up with the main character: Paul to discover exactly what has been going on with the people and places which used to be affected by the evils of Sutton Park...

PART 3:

Last time on SUTTON PARK SW1: Having been reunited with the viewers after 10 years away from The Park; Paul has been menaced by a robot in a tennis court, tried to warn his old friends that the evil of The Park is growing once again and now finds himself trapped in a cupboard with some jelly monsters!  This episode features a cameo by Harry F, an original cast-member, as well as a dog called Ben. Theme music by Shy Yeti. Incidental Music by Escaped Scarecrow - whose new album can be purchased from http://www.amazon.co.uk/

PART 4:

This episode features two of the original cast-members, Nick and Aly G and was filmed in London and Salisbury during early March 2010. Theme music by Shy Yeti. Incidental Music by Escaped Scarecrow - whose new album can be purchased from www.Amazon.co.uk and iTunes.

Facts about this episode: Fact 1. Nick was one of the first cast members from 1992 and was still involved in the very last episodes of the original show when we ended in the early 00s. We have appeared in each other's films since the early 90s. Fact 2. The tapes that feature in the end titles are the original mastertapes of episodes from the mid-90s. Fact 3. The bit of footage at the very end of the episode of me singing the original theme was recorded by coincidence on the 2nd January 2010 - about 3 weeks before I even decided to revive the show. SPOOKY!?!

PART 5

Once again, this episode features two of the original cast-members, Nick and Aly G and was filmed in Salisbury during early March 2010. Theme music by Shy Yeti. Incidental Music by Escaped Scarecrow - whose new album can be purchased from www.Amazon.co.uk and iTunes.

Facts about this episode: Fact 1. The scene in the phone box was originally different - it was supposed to be used in Part 4 and there is footage of Paul trying to contact Nick in existance; however I forgot to use it - so instead included it in a different way; attempting to make it appear that the evil Park forces had also arrived in Salisbury. Fact 2. The cliffhanger was originally intended to occur later - but what was going to be the cliffhanger will now appear in Part 6. In the full version of the scene in the existing Part 5 Paul tells Nick "No! It's not time for a cliffhanger..." however when it came to edit the episode I decided it actually was!! Fact 3. This is the first episode in the history of the series that bears a "Next time..." tag with brief scenes from the next episode.

PART 6

Once again, this episode features two of the original cast-members, Nick and Aly G and was filmed in Salisbury during early March 2010. Theme music by Shy Yeti. Incidental Music by Escaped Scarecrow - whose new album can be purchased from http://www.amazon.co.uk/ and iTunes.

Facts about this episode: Fact 1. A number of my books appear during the scene where Paul and Nick attempt to conceal the book from the portal; which is in fact a compilation I recently put together around the time this episode was filmed and can actually be found on www.lulu.com (Shhh! If you buy it, it might cause a time anomoly!) Fact 2: The original cliffhanger of this episode was Paul wondering how they will cope, which appears around half-way through this episode. Fact 3: Scenes were filmed with Nick where Paul wondered what it would be like if he left England and went to Amsterdam; these scenes were to have been filmed over Easter 2010, but the trip had to be postponed - so the lead up to this was Nick was deleted. Fact 4. The creepy voices that appear in the cliffhanger were filmed on Tuesday 6th April 2010 during the filming of Part 7. Fact 5. The scenes that make up the cliffhanger are taken from many of my previous videos - some not yet edited; there is also a brief clip where Paul is on the phone that is from a deleted scene in Part 4 and the last clip before the cliffhanger (where I am all blue) was filmed in Oslo in November 2008.

More episodes coming soon - probably by the last week of April.

Yeti hugs,

Paul xx
