CASTING

For our cast we needed a double act that had the necessary chemistry between them in order to portray their closeness on screen.

The pair we found are close friends of mine and Yasmins and as well as this they are best friends! Once we finalised our story ideas and knew we needed a dynamic comedy duo; these were the first two we called!
This is Ashley Walker and he will be playing the part of Frank. The "brains" of the programme. As you can see by his picture he is a funny character that is confident as well as AVERAGELY intelligent and suits the role of Frank perfectly. When we addressed him to ask him to be a part of our film, we gave him role models such as Derek Trotter from Only Fools and Horses as this is who his character is based on.

This is my dear friend David Deller who really tells all just by this photograph. He is a lovely person with an appetite for food and fun! Perfect for what Charlie's character is going to illustrate. These two indiviuals are very close friends as well and this should work in our favour when it comes to filming. Being around them is always humourous so this is beneficial for our film as they really are each others energy! Not as similar to Rodney Trotter in appearance but his sidekick essence is what we need for Charlie and Frank to work as successfully as Del Boy and Rodders.



The proof is in the picture! Ashley and Dave have actually been friends for years!



... And here's Yasmin with them too :)
