5 SLEEPS LATHAM

I'm off to Birmingham in 5 days time. I'm meeting Amanda Muggleton who played the infamous Chrissie Latham in Prisoner Cell Block H.

I can't wait - it's going to be so exciting and I get to meet and chat with a real soapie legend. She emailed all the guests and sounds like a hoot and a half - she apparently loves talking about Prisoner and is determined to find those dodgy yellow shoes that tart with a heart Chrissie wore.

Chrissie was one of the most memorable characters and I will be happy to sit for hours listening to stories about her career and time in Prisoner. I'm looking forward to all the backstage gossip - Val Lehman (Bea Smith) has helped to organise the trip and it's a one off opportunity. What would top it off would be to meet Queen Bea herself!

I'll report back on Miss Muggleton's escapades in Birmingham after the weekend.....

When you do.... please say hi from Gavin in Melbourne... let Amanda know that I am still thinking of her and wish her all the best for the AFI awards nomination for best supporting actress in "City Homicide"..

That will give her a giggle..

Cheers Gavin W
