I was surprised when a young film-maker named Alex Beresford got in touch to tell me he was making a documentary based partly on my experiences. I was equally astonished when he said he wanted me to appear in it. I’m the old hideous-looking one in the middle.
So here it is; the stories told straight from the horse’s mouth (in my Stoke-on-Trent drawl). As I have been attempting to do for a while, Alex’s film Cult: The Final Chapter highlights a sinister side of the Derbyshire town of Buxton and the ending is particularly creepy. Alex has gone to hone his craft at film school and I look forward to seeing more of his cinematic explorations.
