Killer Career Move
We often get yelled at by hardcore fans for semi-automated things like the free running, which makes you look amazing but doesn’t ask too much of you.

The result was the Mature Media Group, a well known name among porn fans in the late 80s and early 90s, and Lark made over 20 films in Canberra with cheesy Australian themes, launching local starlets like Alice Springs and Kelly Blue. … Continue readingTrue Blue
Frankie J Holden
I hadn’t done any TV for a little while. The last long running TV thing I did was Something in the Air, which was on ABC and that finished in about 2002, so it’s good to get back in the saddle. … Continue readingFrankie J Holden
