4ish PM — Well, the day is winding down and they’re still at it. The flood lights are out and currently filming in an area that has very limited access. I am unable to get any sort of picture. Earlier I was able to obtain some sweet pics, and saw Simon Pegg again. I think I might have seen Hank Azaria, but I am not quite sure. I’ll have to wait til the movie comes out to see if I guessed correctly. I also saw Schwimmer (yawn)(bottom pic, wearing the green cap). Here’s all the pics and the links to the individual posts throughout the day!! Enjoy!!
Well, that about does it. Pretty awesome, eh? The life and times of Londonite. Oh, you know how it goes.
12 Noon–Decided to walk to school today to see what I could see. No stars but tons of exciting looking things. IMDB says in their synopsis that the lead runs in a marathon to win back the girl. Well, I saw the faux marathon. Aptly named the NIKE RIVER RUN, it was a believable starting point complete with sponsorships from Nike and Orange (mobile provider), and actual runners! Exciting stuff indeed. Well, I am at school now and have no cord to upload the photos, so you’ll get those later. Class is also starting in a matter of moments, so I must run.

10 AM – I just visited the set again. This time I saw some actors/famous people. Namely Simon Pegg and David Schwimmer. Walked within six feet of them. They were between takes and boring David was giving Simon direction. Didn’t linger too long. I figured that the stalking should be resevered for the latter part of the day. I took a pic of the production from my balcony. You can’t really see it here, but directly behind the Dean Swift sign is a black cab holding Simon Pegg. The dark red Miata on the left (right behind the silver convertable) pulls away and Simon says something from inside the cab. Didn’t really pick it up. I’m sure it’s something super funny though, cause Simon is like that.
Last week there were bulletins posted all over my dorm: FILMING IN THE SHAD THAMES AREA, MONDAY 13TH NOVEMBER. (What?!) "We are currently in pre-production on a feature film provisionally entitled "Run Fat Boy Fun". It is a romantic comedy starring (and written by) Simon Pegg ("Shaun of the Dead", "Spaced"). We are due to film several scenes on Gainsford Street, Horselydown Lane, Shad Thames and Lafone Street."
Who?What?Whoa?Widday?Whobbbada?Giggadumder?Huhhhh??? Simon Pegg?? Quick! Off to IMDB.com. Run Fat Boy Run Hmm… David Schwimmer. Eh, alright. I mean, F*R*I*E*N*D*S was great, but he was just the awkward guy. Michael Ian Black? Yeah, okay, that’s pretty sweet. I mean, he was in that hilarious show Stella on Comedy Central before it got canceled. Who-ha! Hank Azaria?? There is a God. Well, I guess this means I have to officially go and check it out.
7:45 AM – And that’s just what I did. Went to bed extra early, woke up, and took a leisurely stroll to Starbucks for a gingerbread latte. What did I see?? Well, a bunch of equipment, "production assistants," bobbies (police), but no stars? What?? Well, I guess this means I’ll have to walk by again at a later time. I don’t have class until 1 pm. No sweat.
