2 years a go we started searching for new talent for this film going into schools in Newham and holding workshop castings for the young characters, small roles and non actors. Dan Hubbard did an amazing job casting the established and brilliant actors including Natalie Press, Jo Hartley and the fantastic Riz Ahmed.
Working on ill manors was like working with family. Everyone worked hard, had fun and 100 per cent believed in Ben Drew and the film because he belived in all of us. Thanks for the experience Ben. x

I'm a freelance casting director for commercials, music videos and films. I assist casting directors as times too. My blog is like a visual cv of some of the work I've done. Recently cast my first TV comedy-People Just Do Nothing which is out 2014. I've also worked on the feature film ILL MANORS with Dan Hubbard, Top Boy (assisting Des Hamilton) several short films for RANKIN and more recently street casting on feature films Catch Me Daddy, The Goob and Bypass. I sing in Blues Brothers Banned- www.bluesbrothersbanned.co.uk and I sometimes teach, direct and choreograph dance and drama to Children aged 3 upwards! I still enjoy performing and also do voiceovers. Just done the recent Tamagotchi Friends ad. :)
