Telstar has been announced as showing at the upcoming BFI London Film Festival. It will show on two dates during the festival.

There are two photos of JJ shown on the BFI website.

Thanks to TS who found a cast and crew photograph from Telstar on Oliver Reuben Charles Whitehouse Online, who worked as a runner on the film. Thanks to that site for sharing it online.

"I recently worked for a few weeks as a runner on the film "Telstar" in London. I learned a huge amount from this experience about the various job roles (some of which I never knew existed!) I would leap at the chance of doing something like this again. The film features Kevin Spacey and is directed by Nick Moran."

Huge thanks to 6point7 and Cassangel from the forum, who managed to record a short clip on the making of Telstar, from the Premier Close Up programme shown on Sky 3 last weekend.  

There are very brief views of JJ and interviews with the director and other cast members. I have uploaded the clip to the galleries.

Huge thank you to Robbie Duke, who has given permission to share the lovely photograph on this website, of himself with JJ, taken on the set of Telstar. Robbie was the original Patrick Pink, and had a small acting role in the film. Read more on his My Space page here.

TS from the forum found 3 watermarked photos of JJ, as Heinz Burt with very blonde hair, taken during the filming of Telstar. They can be found here at Fotobank.
