Apr 3: Hollywood on the doorstep

Every now and again, a celebrity will make their way to Norfolk and there will be great excitement, although actors like Olivia Coleman went to school in Norwich and were residents of the county for many years, along with actors like John Hurt.

The last few days has seen great excitement in Breckland.

John Travolta was spotted in the Morrison's in Fakenham.

A few days later he was at the Wetherspoons pub in Dereham (which I definitely don't go to). There's a funny story attached to this, but I won't share it here.

On Sunday, he was at a restaurant in Tombland.

Travolta was at the Oscars a few weekends' ago.
Raynham Hangar Studios is mentioned here. This is only a few miles from where I live, and was used to film The Souvenir and The Souvenir Part II.

Films I watched today:

The Lost World (1960) dir. Irwin Allen

Cinemascope feature based on Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's book about a tepui with dinosaurs - well, giant lizards and the usual native girl who gets captured...
