Have a great week! Enjoy this warm (I would say hot - +30 degrees Celsius (ºC) today ) and sunny spring weather!!!

Jonathan is a director of this video (showreel). Interesting!

Wish you a fun-filled May!

Jonathan has been filming a showreel for the past two weeks. Here is a picture of him with his students. Jon looks really sweet :)

Happy Easter everyone and Happy Birthday to me!

Have a great week!

This is a screenshot from a video. I think it's from 2009. Jonathan participated in Franco-British Screenwriting Workshop which celebrated its 10th birthday in 2009. The aim of this workshop is to create a bridge between first feature films and cinema professionals.
There is a small video on this webpage with a few seconds of Jonathan http://www.atelier-francobritannique.com/en/

 (Jon is eating there something :))

Happy Birthday Jonathan!

I wish you health, success in everything you do and most importantly, I wish you happiness - without measure - every day! You are the best actor in the world! Congratulations and every success for the future! Have a wonderful birthday!

Jonathan's trip to Virginia

Jonathan attended MFA students (in Shakespeare) performance "Macbeth" at Mary Baldwin College at the end of February in Staunton, Virginia (USA).

Thank you for finding this pic, Flo!

Jonathan's workshop "Acting for camera" at East 15 has begun last week. Good luck and all the best to you, Jonathan!

Have a peaceful March!!!

Wishing you a very happy and romatic Valentine's Day!!!

The first month of 2014 has gone! How time flies!!! Have a lovely February!!!

Jonathan F. on TV

"Poirot"  on ITV3 at 6:45pm Sun, 26 January and at 1:55am Mon, 27 January.

Have a nice beginning of the week! All the best to Jonathan! I hope the new year is treating you well!!!

This picture is from "An ideal husband". I like this film :)

Happy New Year 2014! I wish you a joyous and wonderful New Year from the bottom of my heart! I wish you the best of health so that you can prosper in every single endeavour of your life! May this year be the one in which all your wishes come true. The one in which your dreams may turn into reality and all your fears may fade away. Happy New Year 2014! Dear Jonathan, I wish you the best of luck, joy and every success in your future projects!!!

May 31st December be the end of your sorrows and 1st January 2014 be the beginning of your joys!

Merry Christmas! I wish you all the happiest of Happy Holidays and hope you all have a fantastic, restful break.

I love the winter weather. I love it when it's snowing and the sun is shining. I like the cold, but not FREEZING so I can't feel my face. I think Jonathan knows how cold it is in the ice-storm. The “Watchtower” was shot in December 2008 in Iowa. He said back then “One time it got so cold the camera froze- literally”. So I wish you a Merry Christmas holiday with sunshine (not rain or storm), but hopefully we will all have a white Christmas!

This is the "Watchtower" screenshot. Would love to see this short film, but don't know where to find it :(

I watched Victoria and Albert yesterday. Jonathan is so great playing Prince Albert. Would love to see him playing a romantic character again. And he will be great in a comedy. I think he's got a good sense of humour.

Christmas Holiday

Today was my last day of work before Christmas break! (Sorry to those who have to work now til 5pm or later ). I wish everyone a safe and joyful holiday break, and it doesn't matter if you're going away on vacation or staying, like me, at home.
I want to share this nice and sunny picture with you!

Picture from the past

This is one of my favorites photos of Jonathan (actually, all photos of Jon are awesome :)) He looks great in this black shirt. Black is a classic colour, simple, but stylish. I think black can evoke strong emotions, Jon looks powerful and sophisticated.
Have a great week! Have a great Christmas shopping!

Covington Cross was a fun TV show that followed the lives of the Grey Family living at their castle Convington Cross in medieval times

Nice picture :)

The Black Death DVD III

I'm watching "The Black Death" at the moment. Interesting movie about terrible desease. The Black Death was one of the most devastating pandemics in human history. I like historical movies - they manage to drag us away to another time and, for the most part, teach us a little about our ancestors, history. A few years ago I watched BBC series about Egypt, about various archaeological discoveries in that country. It was really interesting and entertaining.
Jonathan is a very versatile actor and has acted in various roles. He is true actor as he can play any role. He looks accurate and believable in historical clothes :) "Pompeii" and "The Nuclear secrets" are my favorite too.

Jon as Louis Heyligan, musician and philosopher

Jonathan on TV II

I've just found this - Jonathan as Julian Felspar will be on Alibi channel on December the 8th at 4 pm (New Tricks - Couldn't Organise One)

Jon with Ronald Pickup (from New Tricks)

Jonathan on TV

For those who have ITV3 channel... Sparkling Cyanide will be on December the 31st (New Year's Eve !) at 3.55 pm and on January the 1st at 7.25 am (if you still be awake on the first day of the New Year!).

The Black Death DVD II

I've just received a package from Peter Nicholson.:) It didn't take a lot of time, like he promised. Will watch it this weekend. Have a lot of work to get done at the moment.

The True Gentleman

Since there is no news about Jonathan... I've decided to post this last year's picture, that  I truly love. Jonathan looks good in a suit, confident and sophisticated. He deserves the BAFTA award for being a talented actor :)

The Black Death DVD

Two days ago I found a person who has The Black Death DVD. It’s Peter Nicholson, The Black Death director (and Pompeii’s). I asked him if he knows where I can watch The World’s Worst Century documentary on the Internet. He was really nice chatting to me on the Facebook. I didn’t expect him doing this and I was surprised, when he said that he has this DVD and he will make me a copy. I’m really grateful to him. This morning he wrote that he made a copy and will post it to me this week. I’m looking forward to it.

And his Dartmoor Killing project is coming along well. He really hopes to be able to announce big news before Christmas.

The Black Death Documentary

Thank you, Flo, for the link!

The World's Worst Century

The "World's Worst Century" was released in 2004. That is a movie (with Jonathan in it) I haven't seen. And there is so little information about it. As I understand it wasn't released widely on DVD. I only know that this is a three part history series considering the fourteenth century which saw traumatic upheavals such as wars, epidemics and revolts. The series has 3 episodes: Agincourt, The Peasant's revolt and The Black death. Jonathan is playing Louis Heyligan. And I don't even know in which episode. I would love to see it. I've got two interests - Jonathan (of course :)) and I like to watch historical documentary. The problem is - where to find this series.

The Class of 89 reunion

Next year, in 2014, Jonathan will celebrate the Class of 1989 the 25th reunion at Central School of Speech and Drama. And it’s already written on a school website:  “A 25 year reunion for the Class of ‘89 will take place in 2014”

http://www.cssd.ac.uk/events/alumni/class-88-reunion

It’s a nice and exciting event, I think. I attended my 10^th University reunion (how time flies!) a couple of years ago.  It was fun.

This picture is from Alumni Newsletter published in January 2010. I think it’s the 20^th reunion (this picture quality is not very good)

Marcel Proust - The Guermantes Way (http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0076qkb) Hurry up! 11 hours left to listen
