Philip to star in new Julian Fellowes' drama, Belgravia

14/3/2019

 
Picture
Philip is to star in Carnival Films’ Julian Fellowes-penned British period drama Belgravia for ITV and Epix, alongside Tasmein Greig, Harriet Walter and Alice Eves. 

Belgravia is a tale of secrets and scandals set in 1840s London, when the upper echelons of society began to rub shoulders with the emerging industrial nouveau riche. But the story begins on the eve of the Battle of Waterloo in 1815, when the Duchess of Richmond throws a party in Brussels for the Duke of Wellington. Among the guests are James and Anne Trenchard, who are living on the profits of newfound trading success. Their young daughter Sophia has caught the eye of Edmund Bellasis, the son and heir of one of the richest and most prominent families in England. Twenty-five years later, when the two families are settled into the newly developed area of Belgravia, the events of the ball, and the secrets, still resonate.

Philip will play businessman, James Trenchard

Celebrity Cup 2018 Day One

30/6/2018

 
This weekend, Phil is  playing  in the Celebrity Cup at The Celtic Manor Resort. This event is a two-day charity golf tournament that pits celebrities from England, Scotland, Wales and Ireland against one another. Philip plays for Wales, thanks to his mother's Welsh heritage. 

Philip who only wrapped filming on Living the Dream yesterday flew straight from Spain to the tournament, missing the first day preamble and warm ups.
The first fixture of the day was Wales v Scotland. For his match, Philip was paired with Gareth Edwards and they faced Scottish rugby player brothers Max and Thom Evans. 

It didn't go well. Phil made bogeys on his first three holes, which wasn't helped by a double bogey from Gareth. The final result was a loss for Phil and Gareth and with Wales only winning one of the other two matches they found themselves at the bottom of the leaderboard going into lunch.

For his second round fixture, Philip was paired up with BBC Rugby commentator Jonathan Davies. They faced an Irish team of actor, James Nesbitt and  former Westlife start, Brian McFadden.

Philip and Jonathan faired far better in this game (winning 5.5 to 3.5 - as did Wales in general, winning 2 out of the three matches. The end of the day scoreboard looked a lot healthier with Wales in 2nd.

Tomorrow sees Team Wales face Team England, with Philip paired up with Scott Quinnell to face dragon Peter Jones and former rugby player Mike Tindall. Tee off will be sometime between 10.00 – 11.00am.

The top two teams on the leaderboard after round three will face each other in the final, with 3rd and 4th teams playing off for the third place spot.

Philip to appear on new Harry Hill show

17/1/2017

 
Picture
Philip is set to appear on a new TV panel show later in the year.  And we have been asked to help!

​Harry Hill's Alien Fun Capsule, will see two teams tasked with saving planet earth from alien invasion! Each team must find clips, people, basically anything that is fun or funny enough for Harry to place in a capsule which, in the event that we're invaded by aliens, we can present to them to demonstrate earthlings are good fun and therefore worthy of saving.   Over a series of rounds, the two teams of two present Harry with fun stuff which Harry must adjudicate on and ultimately decide what's in and what's out of the Fun Capsule with the triumphant team winning bragging rights.
 
Along the way there will be sketches, studio items and special guests. And the occasional appearance of an alien!

​It is not yet known what form Philip's appearance will take - whether he will be on one of the teams or just  putting in a brief appearance., but we have  been contacted by the production company with a request to use some of our content on the show. They would like to use some photos from our Fan Encounters page to feature on the show.

​We are extremely honoured to have been asked to participate in this way  - it's a huge compliment! ​If you are interested in having your photo with Philip featured on our fansite  and on the show, please do get In touch

​The show will record at the end of the month and air on ITV later in the year.
