Andy & Chaz Bugger Off To America! To Hollywood To Be Exact…

When British brothers, Andy and Chaz Dobson head to states in search of the American dream, they get more than they bargained for…
Last night friends and celebrities gathered in Hollywood at Dim Mak Studios on Hollywood boulevard for a private screening of the series Andy & Chaz Bugger Off To America! currently in the works, and I have to say, it went down a storm (er, so did the free Vodka)…
On arrival, attendees including Bai Ling, and Mama Mia actor Emrhys Cooper (with his lovely mom) posed proudly for their mug shots for a sea of paps at the red carpet event.
With their motto, “Going straight has never been so crooked,” blue-collar cockneys, Andy & Chaz, played by Craig Robert Young (pictured left) and Darren Darnborough (pictured right) can’t seem to stay out of trouble and one thing leads to another, and another… and eventually this ‘bloody’ gruesome Guy Ritchie/Tarantino-esque caper which sees Chaz dismembering the body of an A-list Hollywood star with a hacksaw is out of control…
Now if that doesn’t have you all wanting to watch, then just wait till you see the scene where Andy shags a prostitute to death…say no more!
The project, the brainchild of ex Charmed star Young has been in development for over two years, but the buzz on this hilariously daring dark comedy series is only just beginning and the suits in Hollywood are starting to sit up.
Young told me, “It’s a great time for British actors to bugger off to America, we are overwhelmed with the response and attention that Andy and Chaz has garnered so far, the use of social media applications, Twitter, YouTube and Facebook has really got us noticed and helped spread the word.”
He added: “Andy and Chaz is what would happen if you put Pulp Fiction and The Hangover in a blender!”
Written and directed by talented newcomer Richard Keith (below center), Andy & Chaz Bugger Off To America! is sure to be a series you’ll get to see on a TV set in the not-so-distant future, in the meantime you can catch a sneak peak of episode one below.
All-in-all a good night was had all round, and after one too many Vodkas I scarpered for the door… I didn’t want to end up in the local nick myself having my mug shot taken – for real…er, if you get my drift…
My Verdict: Excellent series, hangovers are messy!
Bai Ling Gets Lippy With Helen Mirren!
Posted on June 24th, 2010 at 3:38 pm by
Fame hungry Bai Ling certainly knows how to grab a headline or two, whether it’s dancing the funky chicken for the paparazzi outside of some of Hollywood’s hotspots or, um … snogging Helen Mirren to promote their new movie Love Ranch - Bai (it seems) has no shame hogging the limelight!
Mirren looked slightly uncomfortable as she posed with Ling at the US premiere held at Arclight Theater last night, when Ling attempted to lock lips with her. Poor Mirren even had to close her eyes … probably to avoid the fright of her life!
Love Ranch, directed by Helen’s hubby Taylor Hackford, is the story of a married couple – Grace and Charlie Bontempo, who open the first legal brothel in Nevada.
And there’s no prizes for guessing what Bai plays, er yup … she’s playing one of the “girls” in the house, surprise, surprise!
The movie also stars Joe Pesci, Gina Gershon and Kristen Stewart’s actress pal Scout Taylor-Compton.
Check out the official trailer below.
