Someone Else

This Film appealed to me because it starred one of the favourites in Green Wing, and I suppose it's good that I gave it a go. Basically thirty-something David (Stephen Mangan) is a portraits photographer at a high-street photo studio, and when he isn't working he is stressing over his love life. He is torn between rather-too-agreeable girlfriend Lisa (Susan Lynch), and the exciting but tricky Nina (Lara Belmont), and has to make a serious decision of which to be with. It is when he gets it all wrong and loses both he has to start all over again. Also starring EastEnders' Chris Coghill as Matt, Shaun Dingwall as Michael, John Henshaw as Paul, Lydia Piechowiak as Stephanie, Lydia Fox as Matt's girl, Bridget Fry as Jane, Frank Perozo as Alex and a cameo appearance by Neville Bardoliwalla as Freddie Mercury. This was meant to be a romantic comedy drama, however I found it more drama filled on the whole. The film has a lot of appeal and is worth watching.
