Podcast appearances and mentions of richard vernon

Well dear listener, it had to happen. After appearing with us separately on various podcasts, a long-time and genuine friend of the podcast - Too Hot for TV's Dylan Rees - joins BOTH of us to discuss the BBC television adaptation of Douglas Adams' THE HITCHHIKER'S GUIDE TO THE GALAXY on tonight's episode of ALTERNATE GALAXIES. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy aired between 5 January and 9 February 1981 on BBC2 in the United Kingdom. The adaptation follows the original radio series in 1978 and 1980, the first novel and double LP, in 1979, and the stage shows, in 1979 and 1980, making it the fifth iteration of the guide. The series stars Simon Jones as Arthur Dent, David Dixon as Ford Prefect, Mark Wing-Davey as Zaphod Beeblebrox, Sandra Dickinson as Trillian and Stephen Moore as the voice of Marvin. The voice of the guide is by Peter Jones.  Peter Jones, Simon Jones, Moore and Wing-Davey reprised their roles from the original radio series in 1978/80, as did supporting actors Richard Vernon and David Tate. In addition, the series features a number of notable cameo roles, including Adams himself on several occasions.

Can you believe it? The detention bell is ringing for a 40th anniversary! This week, we're diving deep into the iconic John Hughes classic, “The Breakfast Club.” Join us as we reminisce about the joy and teen angst of Emilio Estevez, Anthony Michael Hall, Judd Nelson, Molly Ringwald, Ally Sheedy, and realize as adults that Paul Gleason's Richard Vernon isn't as mean as we thought he was when we were teenagers. Was “The Breakfast Club” a defining moment for the Brat Pack? Is it the quintessential teen film of any decade? Does it still resonate with audiences today? Grab your lunch and meet us in the library... This is one detention you won't want to miss!

In the wake of the government’s recent infrastructure announcements, we pinpoint the legal issues to watch out for in real estate. The coming year will see widespread activity in the UK’s real estate asset classes, from logistics to the living sector (in its broadest sense), and from data centres to office space. In this episode, we discuss the legal changes, risks and trends to keep on your radar. Together, Ashurst’s Alison Murrin and Richard Vernon reflect on market sentiment, government plans to deliver 1.5 million homes and fast-track major infrastructure projects, and how key asset classes, legislative developments, and sustainability goals (e.g. energy efficiency, decarbonisation, etc) may evolve. Episode talking points include: · Logistics: Demand will be further fuelled by the shift to e-commerce and onshoring production, but hurdles will include site availability and housing pressure on brownfield sites. · Living sector: Despite government support for build-to-rent schemes and funding initiatives, the UK’s chronic housing undersupply appears set to continue. And challenges such as retrofitting older homes will loom large. · Data centres: Exponential growth will expose land and power shortages, alongside sustainability challenges, influenced by new EU energy reporting standards. · Offices: Sustainability will separate prime-grade offices from outdated stock, with retrofitting lagging behind targets to meet net-zero ambitions. · Legal hot topics: Proposed commonhold reforms, high street revitalisation efforts, biodiversity net gain mandates, the Renters’ Rights Bill abolishment of no-fault evictions, cladding safety, decarbonisation, and more.

Beyond being in the same class at Shermer High School in Shermer, Illinois, Claire Standish, Andrew Clark, John Bender, Brian Johnson and Allison Reynolds have little in common, and with the exception of Claire and Andrew, do not associate with each other in school. In the simplest and in their own terms, Claire is a princess, Andrew an athlete, John a criminal, Brian a brain, and Allison a basket case. But one other thing they do have in common is a nine-hour detention in the school library together on Saturday, March 24, 1984, under the direction of Richard Vernon, supervising from his office across the hall. Each is required to write a minimum one-thousand-word essay during that time about who they think they are. At the beginning of those nine hours, each, if they were indeed planning on writing that essay, would probably write something close to what the world sees of them, and what they have been brainwashed into believing of themselves. But based on their adventures during those nine hours, they may come to a different opinion of themselves and the other four. - IMDBThe Breakfast Club on IMDBThe Breakfast Club on WikipediaThe Breakfast Club on Rotten TomatoesCheck out our special co host this episode, Cindy, at her Instagram page & be sure to follow her on her Instagram here as well as her other social medias that you can find linked in her profile!If you are new to the podcast then please consider following us on the platform that you love, we can be found most anywhere that you listen to your favorite podcasts.

Our guest today Richard Vernon is a customer experience extraordinaire. He is here to talk CX. The real question we need to ask ourselves these days is how do you go from old to new? What is the paradigm shift? If you want to change a practice or behavior, then you have to change your paradigm and the results you’ll get is change. Spending time on the front lines and seeing customer experience through their eyes is transformational. Sometimes the best ideas will come from those who are dealing with customers all day every day and Richard talks about how they’ve gotten great CX ideas by brainstorming with the customer service reps.Richard’s background 1:01Paradigm shift 2:30Coaching 5:57How do we truly authenticate a customer in a warm and friendly way? 13:20“So it went around, there were some ideas shared, but nothing really stuck, and then this cute little gal raised her hand in the corner. She rarely participates and she says ‘here’s what I say. I say well who do I have the pleasure of speaking with today?’ I was ready to give her my credit card, my social security number. It was the most friendly way.” 14:02https://www.linkedin.com/in/richardvernon/

This week, Brendan and Jason watch a tale about a butler who is... much different from Anthony Hopkins in The Remains of the Day. The year is 1963 and Dirk Bogarde is a sinister man with a plan up his sleeve in The Servant. The guys discuss some of the most dense and symbolic cinematography, they debate the way in which the film views the class system, they talk about the clever ways in which the films skirts around the censors and much more. Plus: is this the first appearance of a "Vaguebooker"?   Next week: A 3-part series begins with the return of "Brit Picks." The first pick (from Brendan) will be Paddington 2.   Full List: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BFI_Top_100_British_films Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/forscreenandcountry Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/bfi_pod Our logo was designed by the wonderful Mariah Lirette (https://www.instagram.com/mariahhx)   The Servant stars James Fox, Dirk Bogarde, Sarah Miles, Wendy Craig, Catherine Lacey and Richard Vernon; directed by Joseph Losey.

Remember the movie the Breakfast Club? The vice principal in that film, monitoring detention for Molly Ringwold and Judd Nelson was an actor by the name of Paul Gleason, aka V.P. Richard Vernon. Once at the crap table, I got hot with the bones, and principal Vernon spotted me chips to keep me throwing the dice. It was the movie the hangover before the movie was even written. --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/andy-cordan/support

This episode of Movie Addict Headquarters focuses on the remarkable journey of a true romance from page to screen. George Bettinger -- the popular actor, comedian, impressionist and radio host -- has given his permission to replay his recent Dream Stream Radio interview with Betty Jo Tucker about how It Had To Be Us -- a romantic memoir she and her husband wrote under the pen names of Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence -- became the inspiration for filmmaker Misha Zubarev’s award-winning short film titled CAKE: A Love Story. Included in this fun recorded conversation is actor/musician Richard Vernon’s moving rendition of “Remember the Day,” Zubarev’s original song for the movie. As an added attraction, a medley of favorite film love songs will be played, including: You and the Night and the Music (from The Band Wagon) performed by Lucie Arnaz; You Made Me Love You (from The Jazz Singer) belted out by Tony Babino; and You’ll Never Know (from Hello, Frisco, Hello) sung by Alice Faye.

Filmmaker Misha Zubarev and cast members discuss CAKE: A Love Story, the award-winning short film based on It Had To Be Us, a romantic memoir Betty Jo Tucker and her husband Larry wrote under the pen names of Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence. Zubarev, co-director/writer of the movie plans to reveal why he undertook this particular project and how the film differs from the book. Debra Lord Cooke and Richard Vernon, who play Elizabeth and Harry, talk about what it was like bringing these characters to life on screen. Plus, George Bettinger and Nancy Lombardo, who portray Elizabeth’s friends, join in the lively discussion. The film’s plot focuses on how two people rediscover their lost love after being divorced and estranged from each other for almost 20 years. Although this is a serious theme, the movie includes humor – and, of course, lots of romance!   CAKE: A Love Story earned First Place in the Short Film category at the NSAEN International Film Festival and an Award of Merit from IndieFest (for being a notable artistic and technical production). It was also an Official Selection at the Toronto International Short Film Festival. CAKE: A Love Story is available on Amazon Prime, and It Had To Be Us  can be ordered from Amazon's Kindle Store. 

Richard Vernon shares his experiences with CV Outreach and a specific relationship that has developed with a Muslim lady who wants to know more about Jesus.  

Movie Addict Headquarters celebrates Valentine’s Day early with this special episode. Noted actors/comedians George Bettinger and Nancy Lombardo have been invited to drop by for a discussion of their experiences as cast members in the upcoming short film based on IT HAD TO BE US, an award-winning romantic memoir co-written by host Betty Jo Tucker and her husband under the pen names of Harry and Elizabeth Lawrence. Filming of CAKE: A LOVE STORY was completed in late December, and the project is now in postproduction. It co-stars Debra Lord Cooke and Richard Vernon as Elizabeth and Harry. Co-writers/directors Misha Zubarev and Vera Zubarev report that Nancy and George, who portray Elizabeth’s friends, kept everyone in stitches on the set!  A clip about It Had To Be Us from George’s YOU TELL, YOU SELL show will also be played during this episode.
