- On Saturday BBC Radio 4 will broadcast Nigel Balchin’s play The Small Back Room starring Damian Lewis. Jane Anderson’s Radio Times review had this to say about the programme:
The Saturday Play: The Small Back Room
Saturday 26 April
2:30pm - 3:30pm
BBC Radio 4
Sammy Rice is a British back-room boy. He and a couple of other scientists work tightly together to test inventions that might prove useful in the war against Germany. When Rice is asked to help another department investigate the workings of a new rash of enemy bombs he’s happy to assist, but his greatest problem turns out to be the battle with inter-departmental bureaucracy rather than scary Nazi technology. Damian Lewis as Sammy explodes with invective ire at his superiors and you can feel his internal combustion hitting danger level when he is finally faced with a real bomb to defuse. This thriller is as taut as a stretched wire - and one that hasn’t been earthed, at that.
On Thursday, April 24th BBC Radio 4 will air a feature about the play’s author Nigel Balchin. - Reminder! Two Damian Lewis films will broadcast on the US Sundance Channel this Friday night April 25th: The Situation at 7pm ET and Keane at 10pm ET.
- This article in the Official London Theatre Guide states that The Almeida is offering £10 tickets for theatergoers under the age of 25 for Helen McCrory’s new play Ibsen’s Rosmersholm which opens in May (previews starting May 15th.)

- This review of Life starring Damian Lewis and Sarah Shahi from Tonight in South Africa says:
“Damian Lewis is captivatingly quirky as the wrongly accused Charlie Crews in what is quite possibly one of the best drama series to hit our screens in recent times. But Life wouldn’t have quite the same kick, were it not for Crews’s practical partner, Dani, who is fighting a few toxic demons of her own.”

- Director Gareth Lewis talks about his movie The Baker starring Damian Lewis and also about the general lack of regard given to comedic films:
“Frankly a film should be judged on its merits, regardless of genre,” says Lewis via e-mail. “If it’s a tearjerker that makes you weep buckets, is that somehow more of an achievement than making people weep with laughter?”…
“I suspect that all comedians feel underrated when it comes to awards,” Lewis says, “but the reward, if not the award, is seeing a theater full of laughing people.” Click here to read the full story.
The Baker will premiere in the US at the RiverRun International Film Festival in Winston-Salem, NC on April 25th and 26th and is currently playing in the UK cinemas listed below:
» PHOENIX LEICESTER 17TH – 18TH APRIL
» PONTERDAWE ARTS CENTRE 19TH APRIL
» ABERYSTWYTH ARTS CENTRE 22ND – 26TH APRIL
» COURTYARD HEREFORD 6TH – 8TH MAY
» THEATR MWLDAN CARDIGAN 25TH – 29TH MAY
- Curahee! We’ve moved Damian into 1st place in Hello! magazine’s “Most Attractive Man of the Week” contest but he only has a narrow lead over the very talented and attractive Clive Owen – so keep voting!
- This Eye for Film review of Chromophobia starring Damian Lewis concludes with:
“…Martha Fiennes has made a discursive, edgy and always interesting drama about modern topics and traumas. While Matthew McConaughey’s out chasing Caribbean treasure and George Clooney’s playing 1920s baseball, here’s a movie gamely tackling serious issues of the age. And that’s always commendable.”
