Unfortunately I don't get Sky Arts, so I miss out on things like that, I did watch "in search of paradise" and I gotta say, it did show Meat in a different, and vulnerable, light. I must be honest and say that this documentary wouldn't have how I'd have chosen to spend my time when I could be making films and practising my screen writing so more, but I do find working with musicians fascinating, the way they be just any old person, but when they perform they transform into something almost otherworldly. I actually think Miss Tallis is very talented, wouldn't mind seeing her sing a Jim song, Original Sin maybe.
