Dot Jam (late announcement)

[Santa's Boyfriend]

To whoever made the Jam'd up version of that eastenders clip where Dot goes in to see the Jam doctor, it may (I reapeat MAY) be shown tonight at Bristol's Cube Cinema as part of an evening of short horror films.  This came together very recently (about an hour ago to be precise) so I wasn't able to come on and talk about it earlier, but wanted to let people know before it happened - and again I still don't know if it's actually going to be shown or not.  But if it does, I'll let you know how it went down.

Just so you know, there were several. I think one was by Rats, and another by The Unicorn (I think) and at least one more.

It doesn't really concern or bother me, but...

1. How do you know about this?

2. How did the cinema hear about/come into possession of the clip?

3. If they show it, don't they owe the creator some money? Or might the BBC not like it? Or it it all just considered as an acceptable one-off?

Cough, one by me.  The one with Dot and Dennis just before they went in.

1: I helped organise the evening and provided some of the films shown.

2: I showed it to them a while ago.

3: It's unofficial, and as such is generally considered ok as a one-off, as long as people don't make too much of a fuss, as indeed is the situation with the creation of the clip itself, and much of the stuff on this site.

It's all academic anyway - we didn't show it in the end for several reasons, one of which being unable to contact the creator in time to get permission, which is generally considered good manners in this kind of situation - but also because I didn't think the clip, great as it is, would make much sense to people who hadn't seen Jam.
