Remember The Big Breakfast, the wacky Channel 4 light entertainment show from the 1990s? The light-hearted weekday-morning staple turned Chris Evans into a star, launched the careers of Gaby Roslin and Denise Van Outen and, rather regrettably, unleashed Zig and Zag on a wider audience. The Big Breakfast became the UKs highest-rated breakfast TV programme, and a certain Simon Cowell must have been watching you can blame him for the brief pop career of the alien duo, among other atrocities. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fT-Ztj4qNUQ Someone else who must have tuned in around then was a young Tom Hardy, as in 1998 he participated in the shows Find Me a Supermodel competition and won. Along with a cash prize, Hardy was awarded a professional contract with the agency Models One, but he soon realised he felt more comfortable in the field of acting: I tried to be a model when I was 19 and I was sh*t. I can only function if I become someone else.
I watch movies and I watch sport. I also watch movies about sport, and if there were a sport about movies I'd watch that too. The internet was the closest thing I could find.
