Friday morning I spoke to Noel Clarke from Centurion, Kidulthood/Adulthood, Doctor Who etc.
I’m lucky in that out of all the people I’ve interviewed and spoke to over the years very few of them have turned out to be dicks. On the whole they’ve been a very enjoyable bunch of characters. Noel immediately went to the top of the scale though – funny, charming and genuinely involved in the conversation.

While we waited for each Audioboo segment to load we chatted around a range of subjects from TV and film to LA to comic books to tech like Twitter. Here are the parts of the conversation that we recorded (as usual the lion’s share of questions came from his followers on Twitter):
Background on Centurion and his role
Talking history and stuntwork
Talking around his career and inspiration
Working with Neil Marshall and winning the Bafta
Social Media and new baby advice for @documentally
Thanks again to Noel for his time and all the fans for their questions. Interviews with other Centurion cast members are here.
The next step is to talk my way onto Centurion‘s regular press junket and see if we have another chat with all involved later in the year… I’ll keep you posted.

Great set of interview Boos, Mike. Really enlightening and entertaining.
Noel came across as a really affable and decent human being. A nice and relaxed interview style also. Kudos to you for directing the flow with the Question Tweets and letting Noel shine through. It’s a great skill.
I’m also greatly encouraged to hear that he is one of the ‘Celebes’ who ‘get’ how to engage in Social Media.
I’m now following him, as I now believe that he is one of the golden folk who has some thing interesting to say.
Great Stuff.
All my best, Del.
