Perfect World
Perfect World is a television show that ran from February 25th 2000 to 25th June 2001. It is set around the life of Bob Slay, a marketing executive for a leading tolietries, Bob has a swish office, a bikini-on-a-stick supermodel girlfriend and is well regarded by his manager. All of which is massively surprising, as he is the most obnoxious, lazy, amoral phoney to ever put his highly-polished shoes to rest on the office table!
The television show was written by Mark Grant (who would later go on to write Star) and Mark Chapman who was a co-writer for the second series and provided additional material for the first series. Mark Chapman also directed the first series and produced both series a with Nick Wood directing the second. The shows other producer was Lucy Robinson (who produced the first Dennis Pennis installment and played the mayoress in The Thin Blue Line) and had executive producers Danielle Lux (All About Me) and Charles Brand (The Comic Strip Presents...).
Cast
Bob Slay- Paul Kaye Maggie- Nina Wadia Marketing director- Michael Cochrane Vaughan - Derran Litten
Briony - Dariel Pertwee Julia - Hannah Storey Cathy - Kate Charman Sergei - Constantine Gregory Melissa - Louise Paige Girl In Club In 'Love' - Lisa Hayes Lauren Hudson - Tasche de Vasconcelos Bank Manager In 'Money' - Judy Flynn Maitre d' - Paul Anthony Barber Spencer - Tony Curran Senior Group Head In 'Charity' - Wolf Kahler Ms Edwards - Kim Thomson Waitress In 'Tarquin' - Emma Gregory Isabelle Hudson - Jan Harvey Michael Hudson - Michael J Reynolds Taxi Driver In 'Parents' - Glyn Grimstead
This was Paul Kaye's final appearance as a recurring cast member in a television series as of 30th August 2006 and was Derran Litten's (Vaughn) second recurring television appearance. The television show has been refered to mamy times as a sitcom that was only made off the success of the Dennis Pennis episodes made for BBC. There is also many connections between Perfect World and The New Statesman.
Quotes/Reviews
Paul Kaye said in an interview regarding the series- "I've never really worked in an office but it was the way I imagined you'd keep sane - I mean an office is sort of like an extended playground, isn't it? So the guy does absolutely no work and the only way he can relieve the tedium is by behaving despicably and I think the whole office would actually be sad if he left because it would suddenly be all very mundane. I mean I'm sure that's the case in a lot of real offices - it's like on reality-TV shows, everyone quite likes the bad guy in the Big Brother house, really."
Tasche de Vasconcelos who plays Lauren in the first series said- "It's a great show, I'm just so proud to have been able to do it. It's brilliantly written". She later went on to describe Paul as "a wonderful actor and co-partner he was so professional".
This is a review of the first episode of series one- "The stylish opening to this new office-centered, six-part situation comedy introduces Bob Slay, the ultimate marketing man. Paul Kaye (well known as spoof interviewer Dennis Pennis), stars as a slick and selfish operator with a saccharine tongue who occasionally justifies his behaviour in asides to the camera. His only real area of vulnerability is his parentage - he was abandoned as a baby. That makes him particularly nervous when he has to meet his gorgeous girlfriend Lauren's parents for the first time. The plotting is quite convoluted in this distinctly adults-only opener, but it has its moments. The best of them involve the marketing director, played by Michael Cochrane as a sex-mad monster who steals all the best lines. Even he confesses to being a little over-eager with Lauren's mother, played by Jan Harvey."

Criticisms With Series Two
Series Two didn’t have to many differences to the first series but the small changes it did have caused certain criticisms by reports of the show. One of the changes criticised was that the Marketing Directors character had become much more of a central character and with this came many more sexual innuendos and references, to which some people believed was simply too rude for the style of the show. Another criticism was made due to Paul Kaye’s new haircut, which was long, black and in many episodes rather scruffy, this gave the feel that Bob Slay wasn’t as organised as he was in the first series and that he wasn’t to sensitive to what people thought of his image which couldn’t be more opposite to his true ambitions.
Releases
Perfect World Series One was released on VHS in 2000, it lasted approximately 174 minutes and was rated 18, presumably for the Marketing Directors sexual implications and Bob Slays use of the F word in Love. The video has been discontinued and there is no plans for releasing Series One or Two to be released on DVD.

Dollhouse - High Energy Rock and Soul
Dollhouse is a high energy garage band from Enköping, Sweden. Their main influences in the beginning were The Stooges, MC5, Blue Cheer and The Who. They started out as a three piece act in 2001 when they also recorded their debut 7" vinyl single titled "I'm a man on the move" (released by Puresome Productions). Their sound has since evolved into a more rock'n'soul kind of sound, which means they have integrated rock'n'roll music with traditional soul and blues in their sound. They have also added a second guitar to their sound. The band's debut album "The Rock And Soul Circus" was produced by MC5 bassplayer Michael Davis in Eagle Rock, Los Angeles, USA. After extensive touring in Europe the band caught the eye of The Hellacopters' Nicke Andersson, who produced the recording of the "The Royal Rendezvous" album.
