Wow just when i thought it couldn't get any better, there is now a link on the Sir Roger Moore fan site to take you to O-Ten's tribute to The Saint.

Here is a photo link to Sir Roger Moore Fan Site...

Also here it is on the Sir Roger Moore Facebook Page...

A letter with copies of Hull Mag and selected photos are now on their way to Sir Roger Moore.  

It is such a huge pleasure to see O-Ten on the Sir Roger Moore fan site and all the great feedback i am receiving, even receiving complimentary messages as far afield as the USA.  

All this great feedback has made all the research and hard work that all concerned put into this worth while.  It is nice to be appreciated.

The Saint shoot was just an enjoyable experience and everybody who was involved had such a great time too.  The photos will now be circulated around the magazines.

To kick off, O-Ten is extremely delighted to see a 2 page feature in April 2014 edition of Hull Mag. We have also been given the front page of Hull mag also (see left photo).  This goes to many households and businesses across the City of Hull and the surrounding areas.  

A huge thank you to Nic at Hull Mag for this amazing feature.  Micci Lou did an amazing job meeting his deadline for April's edition with only a few days before going to press.

The Saint photos are now going to Roger Moore (who played Simon Templar in the ITC show The Saint) to get a few of the photos signed, so they can be proudly placed in frames alongside my signed photo from Richard Bradford who played McGill in another ITC classic 60's show Man in a Suitcase.

I am always on the look out for any other ideas for shoots, so if you have any suggestions please get in touch and we could arrange something together.

Cheers for taking the time to read this Blog, there are more unseen photos on The Saint page on my website.

Hey all!

The Saint shoot is a tribute to the cult ITC TV show starring Roger Moore from the 1960's.  It has been in the planning for 2 months and i was lucky enough to have the actual car that Roger drove in the show.  The car is a Volvo P1800, reg No: 71 DXC aka ST1.

Everything was set for the shoot, however, one week before the shoot happened i had a major epileptic seizure at the top of the stairs, i fell from the top to the bottom during my seizure.  I ended up in hospital for 2 days.  I had broken a few of my bones between my shoulder blades and neck, so serious this was, there was even talk of neurosurgery. They said i must have a saint looking over me as i was close to ending up permanently in a wheelchair.  

I never thought i would be able to fulfil this shoot, everybody suggested that i cancelled it.  However, i pride myself in being a professional and the show must go on under any circumstance, no matter how much pain i was in during the shoot.  

I did the job and i am exceptionally happy with the results :)

I did over do it on the day, thus i had a relapse for 2 days, so now i am just going to be taking it easy for a while, if i ever know what this means lol.

I hope you love the photos as much as i do.  If you haven't seen any of the original The Saint shows, i highly recommend them!  They are still available to buy from Amazon as box sets.

Here is a link to the dedicated page on my website - The Saint.

Enjoy,
