PAUL DARROW
Paul is hosting a new game show for BBC3 called 'Hercules', scheduled
for transmission during autumn 2003. Legend has it that Hercules had
to perform 12 impossible labours to please the gods. Now 12 super-
athletes from all over Britain have gathered to claim the crown of
Hercules, under Paul's watchful eye. Their task is to complete 12
new labours of incredible endurance in just 12 days!! Each new
Herculean test is inspired by an ancient story from Greek mythology
and demands the highest level of both physical and mental strength.
Throughout the events, the competitors are monitored by a tea of
medical experts who analyse and explain the effect on their bodies.
As viewers watch the competition unfold, they will also witness the
private torment behind the scenes as the athletes put themselves
under extreme pressure to come out on top.

In the meantime listen out for Paul's voiceovers on TV & radio,
particularly the new TV ad for PPP private healthcare.

STEVEN PACEY
Steven is currently appearing at the Cottesloe Theatre, South Bank
in 'Democracy' by Michael Frayn. Although the run has now been
extended to 30th December, it is still almost sold out. However,
it's an excellent production and well worth calling the box office
for returns on 020 7452 3000. The Play: West Germany 1969. Willy
Brandt begins his brief but remarkable career as the first left-of-
centre Chancellor for nearly forty years. Always present but rarely
noticed is Gunter Guillaume, Brandt's devoted personal assistant -
and no less devoted in his other role, spying on Brandt for the
Stasi. Steven plays Guillaume's Stasi contact, Arno. Steven also
recently appeared in the new ITV series 'MIT' (a spin-off from 'The
Bill') playing DCI Malcolm Savage. A second series is planned.
