XFM's Gordon Smart interviews the Panthers
‘Walk Like A Panther’ Writer/Director Dan Cadan and cast members Steve Furst, Stephen Marcus and Sean Pertwee talk to XFM’s Gordon Smart about the new British wrestling comedy/drama TV series ‘Walk Like A Panther’.
Set in Yorkshire, 22 years after the plug was pulled on British wrestling on TV, a band of brothers will squeeze into their leotards for one final rumble. Dealing with the highs and lows of everyday life through the boston crab and the half nelson, the wrestlers will find themselves, one another and they will never say die.

Vikki Stone
Finite Funnies produced vid “The Phillip Schofield Song” has gone viral and is a big hit! We uploaded the vid, penned and performed by the marvellous Vikki Stone, on Wednesday and had thousands of hits within hours.
After watching it, the silver fox himself tweeted “Now I’ve seen everything! Vikki Stone you are bonkers and I am very flattered. Thank you! xxx”.
Vikki said of the song ”I wrote the song for my 2011 Edinburgh show ‘Big Neon Letters’ – a show about my life so far. Phillip Schofield has been a life-long crush for me, since the Going Live days through ‘Joseph’ and now This Morning, Dancing On Ice and The Cube. And so it was obvious to me that he should feature in the show.”
Idris Elba
Idris Elba talks to XFM’s Gordon Smart about putting on his producer hat again… this time for a new British comedy/drama TV series ‘Walk Like A Panther’ centered on the world of wrestling in the 1980s.
The new series will star Tom Meighan and Stephen Graham, although Elba’s involvement will strictly be behind the scenes as executive producer, stating “I’ve come on board as an executive producer to take the Panthers to the next level. These boys are like family to me, so it’s an honour.” Continue Reading
