"En Ra Ha " not "Amra Ha."..

 I've linked a post to the Simon Mayo podcast page before,and i probably will again. This friday, "Happy Go Lucky", Mike Leigh's latest materpiece is out on DVD over here (U.K.) ..and in cinemas in the U.S. i  believe.. Eddie Marsan plays the dysfunctional driving instructor "Scott". You will know this guy's face so well,and his American accents are pretty good. He gets a lot of work as a "lived-in" "face of the world" ..(in other words an ugly sod). He is a fantastic actor.Literally a day after finishing filming with Mike Liegh on "Happy Go Lucky" ,the epitome of the ensemble piece improvised and naturalistic ...he stepped on to set with Will Smith in "Hancock" ..he really has got one of the best jobs in the world.I get a name check in the first minute or so of the podcast..i "mis-remembered " the comic mantra that the character uses for "mirror signal manouevre". Simon Mayo obviously did aswell,as he reads my text with alacrity to introduce the clip. Just a little geeky pleasure,interacting with the top weekly movie review.This week it was the excellent Andrew Collins . Usual co-host is the now ,almost legendary Mark"Exorcist"Kermode...
