I met Gail when I was up in August for Pars game. I was with a Hibs legend so we briefly spoke footy. She said something like, " I don't really know anything about football but I know we don't like Hearts!". That'll do me!

Gail Porter.. Forever the hubba bubba girl

I seem to remember it was filmed at about 6.00am on Sunday morning..you can kind of tell by the quality of the light in the scene as well.

Can Remember reading an article in some paper.. Saying how Loads of the Fake notes that they chucked out from the back of the Bike - Were Fooling quite a Lot of The Foreign Shop Keepers.. They even showed the notes in the paper at the time, i can remember laughing about it and wanted a note as they looked so cool.. i was only 10..

still never got a note..

I think they wanted to set it in Granton and Muirhouse but those places weren't ****ty enough so they had to film it in Glasgow to get that really deprived, neglected, slummy feel.

;-)

The film wasn't big budget, so most of it would be shot in Glasgow as most people working in on crews in film and TV in Scotland are based there. This is more cost effective in terms of savings on hotels and daylight time on transfers and setting up in Edinburgh. Be interesting to see if Trainspotting 2, with a much bigger budget, features more of Edinburgh.

said recently that Edinburgh was going to be "one of the characters" in T2.

There's an old woman in Dunbar (where I live) that is convinced I was one of the guys in Restless Natives, and periodically appears on my Facebook asking me to come clean and admit to my acting past.

How f****** weird is that.

Stuart from the community foundation (used to do fit fans in training) looks like one of the characters (was it Wotherspoon?)

the boy that Dreamed of "not just (mashed) potatoes - creamed potatoes!"

The scene where they are riding over a footbridge throwing cash was filmed in Westerhailes at the access where the bypass used to stop (when it only ran from Hillend to Westerhailes). I was an apprentice at a firm called James Bowen and used to get off the bus there and walk down through Westerhailes, was probably about 7.15am. I never actually realised what was happening until I saw the film much later and realised i walked under the bridge while filming was taking place.

Not been down that way for a while but think that footbridge is still there...
