Friday night presented more challenges on the making of THE WATCHER - challenges conquered by the superb team working on the production. Tonight was a special night as HANNAH GREEN joined us for the first time, HANNAH was one of the many talented young girls auditioned for the part of STACEY TYLER in THE WATCHER, and the talented little gem won the role. This was HANNAH's first ever film, and for a girl so young she really left everybody gob-smacked, she was absolutely SUPERB!

She was a proper bright little bundle of energy, she had a lot of fun with the cast and crew and proved to be quite a little character behind the scenes, even entertaining us with funny little songs and ryhmes, she was fun, cheeky and really bonded with the cast and crew.

- but once it came to the serious stuff for camera and the film? BOY DID SHE DELIVER! She very quickly absorbed the technicalities of what we were doing, responded brilliantly to direction, threw in suggestions of her own and gave a truly brilliant performance - I can't wait to work with her again.

If any director out there is looking for a child actor that won't let you down? Look no further, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND her - this girl has a future.

STAN the Garden Gnome (a 'familiar figure' on the Manchester film scene) visits THE WATCHER set and chats with TEDDY JACK between takes, comparing their film careers thus far - right pair of luvvies.
