22nd December 2004:
More new stuff to keep your eyes peeled for this Christmas!
Firstly, The Tale Of Jack Frost will premier on CBBC on Friday 24th December at 14.15. It's an animation based on the book by David Melling and narrated by Hugh Laurie, and is billed as a magical wintertime tale. It then hits BBC1 on Christmas Day (Saturday 25th December to those of you who are not sure!) at 09.00. It then bounces back to CBBC later the same day at 11.00 and then again on Boxing Day (Sunday 26th December) at 16.30. It then gets its final airing on New Year's Day (Saturday 1st January 2005) on BBC1 at 12.25. So now there's no excuse for missing it!
The second and last (sadly!) new item is the film Not Only But Always, a dramatisation of the life of comic genius Peter Cook, starring Rhys Ifans and Aiden McArdle. It will be shown on Channel 4 on Thursday 30th December at 21.00
Now, some repeats for those of you who missed them first time round!
The King Of Fridges, first shown on ITV1 in September 2004, will be shown again on ITV2 on Wednesday 29th December at 19.00
Money Kings (aka Vig) will be shown on Sky Movies 7 in the early hours of Wednesday 29th December at 03.50

Then the film The Fifteen Streets will be shown UKTV Drama on Friday 24th December at 21.00, repeated later in the early hours of Christmas Day morning at 02.30
It looks as though Living will be showing the whole series of the model animation The Story Store, starting on Monday 3rd January 2005 at 07.00. Not sure yet whether it will be every day or just on Mondays, more details here when I get 'em.......
Angelina Ballerina continues to dance on Nick Junior at 10.30, repeated later the same day at 16.00. And she's doing it everyday, 7 days a week. What a star......
I've now added the full credits to King Of Fridges to the Films section and the credits / episode synopsis for Fungus The Bogeyman to the Animations section
Well, that's it for this year. All that remains is for me to wish you all a Happy Christmas and a worry-free New Year. All the very best.........
28th November 2004:
Let's begin with something new from Colin! Later this afternoon (28th November) BBC1 will be showing the first part of a three-part animation Fungus The Bogeyman. It's a children's drama based on the books by Raymond Briggs, featuring live-action and animation, with the voices of Fay Ripley and Martin Clunes. Part 2 is on Sunday 5th December at 17.55 and part 3 on Sunday 12th December at 17.25. A DVD will also be released on Monday 6th December 2004

Then the three-parter The Wingless Bird will also be shown back-to-back on Sunday 12th December at 21.00, repeated later in the early hours of Monday 13th December
More Angelina Ballerina! She's dancing her little heart out EVERYDAY on Nick Junior at 10.30, repeated later the same day at 16.00. Rumour has it that there may be a possibility of NEW episodes in the offing, but as yet I can't confirm this..........
The DVD for Man Dancin' was released on 25th October, and the DVD for Crimson Rivers 2: Angels Of The Apocalypse was released in France on 5th October. So far, there's no news on a UK date. Double Zero will be released on single and double DVD sets in France on 5th February 2005
I've now added Colin's new site to the Links section, as well as the full credits to Doc Martin in the Mini-series section. Also updated are the credits / image to the Angelina Ballerina CD in the Discography section
See you soon.........
5th October 2004:
ITV2 are set to air the recently-shown King Of Fridges, on Tuesday 12th October at 20.00
The last episode of Doc Martin series (Haemophobia), will be broadcast on ITV1 on Thursday 7th October at 21.00. Let's hope there will be a new series soon........
Money Kings (aka Vig) will be shown on Sky Movies 9 in the early hours of Wednesday 13th October at 01.40
The SCI FI film Space Truckers, continues to be screened on the SCI FI Channel as follows:
- on Tuesday 26th October at 22.00, repeated a little later in the early hours of Wednesday 27th October at 01.50
- on Sunday 31st October at 20.05
Angelina Ballerina keeps dancing her little heart out! As there's so much to write, I'll give give the basic details here:
- on Nick Junior every day at 10.30, repeated later the same day at 16.00
- on Nick Replay (Monday through Friday) at 11.00
- on Nickelodeon (Monday through Friday) at 10.00
Incidentally, the films Man Dancin' and Crimson Rivers 2: Angels Of The Apocalypse will be released on DVD in the next few weeks - details are not known yet, but it would appear Colin will feature on both
Colin has just finished recording the ident music for a UK Sky channel called Film Flex as well as the music to the French film My Angel (Mon Ange). He has also to finish recording additional music for the animation Fungus The Bogeyman, which should be transmitted this Christmas. He started the project over 18 months ago, but on-going technical problems with the animation process has meant the programme has fallen behind schedule. It does mean though, that the original programme will now be in two parts
Now for some news on Colin's latest Mask Orchestra release, as promised last time. Their new CD, The Orpheus Suite was released yesterday (4th October). The 20 piece big band features such luminaries as Guy Barker, Alan Skidmore, John Parricelli, Dave Hartley and Peter King, as well as three of Birmingham Royal Ballet's percussionists. The album is inspired by the ancient Greek tragedy Orpheus In The Underworld
The Suite is part of David Bintley's three-part dance tribute to Duke Ellington, entitled Such Sweet Thunder, which also includes Ellington's The Nutcracker Sweeties and The Shakespeare Suite. Colin Towns' Mask Orchestra will be playing all three suites in a series of concerts. They will be performing at Birmingham Hippodrome on 6th, 7th, 8th and 9th October, then London Sadler Wells on 28th, 29th and 30th October, before going on to Plymouth Theatre Royal on 4th, 5th and 6th November
I've been fortunate to hear the album already and it's a belter. However, if you're coming to it as a Gillan fan, or expecting it to sound like some of his soundtrack music, then you're in for a shock. If you're familiar with any of Colin's other Mask albums, then this will be right up your street. As I'm not your typical reviewer, I'm not even going to bother to attempt to critically appraise this monster. Suffice to say it's a marvellous piece of work, with plenty of light and shade and everything else in between. Check it out now!
See you soon.........
18th September 2004:

Bye for now.........
2nd September 2004:
Good news for all Colin fans! I know it's short notice, but I've only just found out myself! Starting tonight is a new 6 part series on ITV1 called Doc Martin. It stars Martin Clunes and the music is by Colin Towns. If you miss it tonight (or any Thursday for that matter) you can always see a repeat of it the following Wednesday.
The blurb on it says:
"Martin Clunes stars in Doc Martin, a brand new comedy drama, as a doctor whose truculence and tactless manner causes mayhem in a small Cornish community.
Martin plays surgeon Martin Ellingham, whose glittering career comes crashing down around him when he develops a phobia which prevents him conducting operations.
He makes a life changing decision to retrain as a GP, and applies for a vacant post in the sleepy Cornish hamlet of Portwenn, where he spent childhood holidays.
If the patients are expecting tea and sympathy from their curmudgeonly GP they are going to be disappointed. Despite his surgical brilliance, he has no personal skills, and his understanding of humans is practically non existent."
Details so far are:
- Episode 1: Going Bodmin - on Thursday 2nd September at 21.00, repeated on Wednesday 8th September at 23.00
- Episode 2: Gentlemen Prefer - on Thursday 9th September at 21.00, repeated on Wednesday 15th September at 23.00
More info as and when I get it. Strangely, there's also 2 films currently running on Sky Movies with the title Doc Martin, starring Martin Clunes. The first (the sequel!) is to be shown on Sky Movies 3 in the early hours of Friday 10th September at 04.00 and is called Doc Martin and The Legend Of The Cloutie. It's about a doctor who resorts to local spells to persuade a sneaky family that they don't really want to live in Port Issac when he is gazumped out of his dream cottage. The second film (the original!) is to be shown on Sky Movies 9 in the early hours of Monday 13th September at 03.15 and is simply called Doc Martin. It's described as a comedy about an obstetrician who boards a train bound for Cornwall in a jealous rage after finding out about his wife's infidelities. However, when she arrives to bring him home, he is not sure how ready he is to leave the eccentric fishing folk of Port Issac behind
Huge similarities there, wouldn't you say?!?! I don't think Colin had anything to do with the music to both these films, but I'll check it out just in case

16th April 2004:
Great news for CT fans who want to get their hands on a copy of the Beatrix Potter Music Collection on CD. This proves to be a very popular title and I get loads of inquiries about it and the likelihood of it being re-released again. Unfortunately, it's not! But currently there are two ebayers who have a copy each of the CD for sale via www.ebay.co.uk. Those of you who are interested better be quick as there's only 2 or 3 days left on the auctions. Good luck!

Finally, and totally unknown to me, Colin has just released a new CD soundtrack to the film Crimson Rivers 2 - Angels Of The Apocalypse, or more correctly Les Rivières Pourpres 2 - Les Anges de l'Apocalypse. Both the CD and film were released last week only in France, and unfortunately there are no plans (as yet) to release the CD or film in the UK. It stars Jean Reno, Benoit Maginel and Christopher Lee and looks set to be a big film. I've now added the film credits to the Film section and the CD information has been added to the Discography section. A huge thanks go to Olivier Joussein in France for putting me wise to the CD and for supplying me with the film and CD credits. You're a star!
Coming in the next day or two.......the Colin Towns Interview Number 2..........!
Cheers for now......

And talking of Dalziel And Pascoe, did any one manage to catch the new episode (The Price Of Fame) on BBC1 on Saturday 10th January? Yep, Colin scored the music to that one too, but as I wasn't aware of this until the programme credits began to roll, I wasn't able to let you all know. Luck I caught it by accident. And yes, the fireworks will fly when I get hold of my mole at Colin's office! 'Nuff said!
Til the next time, bye..........
