Ray's Daily Diary

Cute little 2 minute video clip from "Ray's Daily Diary", where Ray Cooney, writer/director of the 2013 comedy "Run For Your Wife", comes to visit Robin and chat over tea and biscuits.

Wish it were longer! Or described where they were! I'm assuming it's somewhere he's staying while in England doing his play, plus it definitely looks like England out of his window. A rented condo or his own? And a dog! Wish he introduced us to him/her and told us its name. And...Linda Hayden?!? Are they back together? Or is she just there because she has a part in this new film too? So many questions! Robin looks great! Linda doesn't really look like herself to me, and she seems a little grumpy. I want to see MORE! Sheesh. Two minutes of nothing having been said is a little annoying. But, fun to watch nonetheless!

Run For Your Wife 2013 Preview!!!

Guess what! Looks like Robin's in a brand new film! "Run for your Wife", which is based on a play he appeared in a few years back. Don't know what character he played in that, but from this preview it looks like he has a small part as a bus driver. In the clip below, a preview of his part can be seen starting at 3:25, and then there is a brief bit of him being interviewed. The movie itself looks a bit silly, and I wonder if it'll ever make its way over here to the U.S. I'll keep my fingers crossed and hope it shows up on Netflix's foreign movie "instant streaming" selection. They always seem to carry a ton of them, especially the really bad ones, probably because they get them for pretty cheap.

UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE 2024 UPDATE!
I finally sort of found this movie on Youtube. Type in "Run for your wife 2013". Very BAD quality copy. Someone was trying to avoid Youtube's copyright sensor and uploaded it backwards and speeded up. Not very easy to watch. I attempted to, then just wound up fast forwarding to Robin's scene, which came toward the end. He plays a bus driver whose bus was blocking one of the main character's cars, and that character was getting exasperated at him. He has a few lines of excuses and tries a bit to maneuver the bus out of the way. Nothing that exciting!
