Our Trailer!!
Elizabeth May is the Professional Equity member name of Liz Rogers.
The UK lockdown of 2019-20 was very tough on the senior members of British society – they had been through WWII - they are the “Keep Calm And Carry On” generation. Lockdown meant they had to rely on friends and family to go to the shops for items they needed. No hugs at the door, always staying 6 feet apart from the people they love. The risk of this dreadful illness hitting our elderly folk was a terrifying prospect.
Our mum, Liz Rogers, has been a featured “Background Artist” for a long time. She is a regular on the UK’s top TV drama/soaps – Holby City and Eastenders . Sometimes she would even get a few lines to say! She also appeared as the “Old Lady on a London Bus” with Tom Hanks in the DaVinci Code (yes, he was lovely).
Our favorite thing to do is #nannyspotting - every Christmas the family watches the film “Love Actually” and she follows Liam Neeson through arrivals at Heathrow airport – the whole family cheers! (she’s wearing a purple coat) #Nannyspotting
WHY THE FILM?
Mum sent Sarah a list of all the TV series, Music Videos, Commercials that she had appeared in over the years. It’s quite a list! We realized that she had not been a lead character, we felt that at 80 years young we need to fix this and make it a reality.
Mum was very sad during lockdown as production had stopped on everything and rumors of not allowing the older actors back onto the set because of the risk of COVID had her very sad.
We needed her to have something to look forward to and to show the world what a great actor she is. This was the rationale for The Wrong Sort Of Grapes!
Filmed in the UK under strict COVID protocols, keeping everyone very safe! Our Director Ben Probert worked tirelessly on this production and we are thankful for his talents.
Our heartfelt thanks to the Cast and Crew of the film, we could not have done this without you! (Like, seriously, with no actors you won’t ever have a film).
