Star Interviews
Manuel Handling, 39
Hello, gosh! I can’t believe this is actually happening……………. I have been waiting a very, very long time to give an open, honest, transparent ‘chew the meat of the bone’, ‘cards on the table’, ‘wipe the slate clean’ ‘no beating round the bush’ no ‘sitting on the fence’ type of interview, that I’m finding it amazing that I’m actually doing one right now. I can’t remember the last time that I was interviewed although, I do vaguely remember back in approximately July 2015, giving a brief BBD Radio 44 ‘chatty type of talkie thing’, which I suppose many of the younger inexperienced actors would indeed class as an interview just so they could add it to their curriculum ryvita. However, what I do remember of that time is that I appeared to be, what is known in this business as ‘resting’, for a significant period of time after the so called ‘interview’. But that is in the past and that’s where it should remain. Things have moved on and here I am giving you an interview for such a prestigeous world renowned online

magazine namely ‘Studio Gossip’. However, for my own protection, accountability & credibility, I do insist that in all of my contracts there is a non disclosure clause in addition to a clearly worded statement that there are certain areas of my life, both on a personal and professional level, that I choose not to comment on at all in any shape or form. Having made myself abundantly clear and both parties have signed and dated the contracts, I will now move forward with this interview.

Background introduction:
I am one of the original members of the small team of actors at PallattWood Studio and although I don’t actually appear in many of the ‘film of the day’ productions, I like to take full artistic credit, ownership, flare, brains and leadership behind many of the films that PallattWood Studio produces.
