July 2010
Simone gets her green card, and moves to America - Click here for her article about the move.
As mentioned in earlier news, there is a break coming up on the web site. We will have some limited access, but news will only be added if its important. Otherwise, we will not be updating the site, nor replying to emails. So please do understand if you send an email you will not be getting a reply for a little over two weeks.
Before the break happens - we've added some screen captures from the following:
1) Call Me (Film) - New pictures - Click here
2) Family (Mini Series) - Improved pictures - Click here
We have just found the following at Argos Entertainment. Obviously we don't know how long this offer might last - And we must stress, you must be able to play Region 2 (Pal) DVD's - but for £2-97 this DVD is available to people in the UK (or if you know someone who you can ask to have the DVD sent to). Click here for the Argos Page.
Also, we have 5 behind the scene pictures that Simone took when filming Single Handed. Click here for the gallery. Many thanks, as always, to Simone for kindly supplying these images. However, please remember - these are copyright to Simone and cannot be used elsewhere without express permission first!
June 2010
Simone has finished filming the Episodes for Single Handed. As yet there are no confirmed transmission dates.
Also, due to holiday - there will be no updates on the web site during the last 2 weeks of July. This is due to limited online access while we're away. Sorry for any inconvience this might cause fans. We will of course update, should there be anything to add, as soon as we can once we are back home.
There are now a limited number of Simone Lahbib signed keyrings available in return for a £25 donation to The Eilidh Brown Memorial Fund - Click here for the page to donate.
- Please forward a copy of your donation receipt to admin@eilidhbrown.co.uk if you would like to receive this keyring which has a publicity shot of Simone and a genuine autograph on the reverse.
- Requests MUST BE IN WRITING AND ARE ON A FIRST COME FIRST SERVE BASIS. Please provide your name and mailing address when sending your email with the attached receipt.
- Monetary gifts should be made using the appropriate Paypal button on this website.
- If you are donating from outside the UK a small amount for postage will automatically be added to your order:
UK - £25.00
Europe - €32.00 (£27.00)
USA & Rest of the World - US $41.00 (£28.00)
We just wanted to give some advance notice that there is more planned for Simone Lahbib items in aid of charity, specifically the Eilidh Brown appeal. This was set up for Simone's niece, who sadly lost her battle with cancer earlier in the year. However, fundraising efforts continue in Eilidh's memory to try and help other children who also face battles with cancer.
We will post more once the whole thing becomes available. Basically - watch this space.
For a reminder - Click here for the Eilidh Brown website.
Simone is due to finish filming soon. Currently there is no date for transmission of Single Handed. More when we have news.
Also, an article has been added to the site with an interview with Eilidh Brown's family about the plan for an concert in her memory. Please note - this is in the early stages of planning, and as yet there is no date or full details available. Click here for the full article
May 2010
24th May
Just a couple of updates for you. First of all, the fake Twitter account has finally been removed. Thanks to everyone who contacted Twitter to complain about it.
Also, the PayPal account for the Eilidh Brown site is now back up and running if you wish to make a donation to that cause. Click here for more.
15th May
First apologies we've not updated since April. Unfortunately Jayne and I have had some real life things going on, added to some technical difficulities getting on the site to update it. This is still on-going, and the main issue we have at the moment, is we are receiving emails, but it appears we've having problems sending them with some people receiving, others who haven't. So if you've been expecting a reply to an email and it hasn't arrived, please send us one again and we'll try and reply again.
Twitter account - False!
The main news is there is a Twitter account that gives the impression of being Simone. This is not - and like Facebook she does not have an account on Twitter. So please be aware that this account is false. While it has been reported, Twitter haven't as yet taken the account down. So please note the account: http://twitter.com/simonelahbib is false.
Also, just to update about the new Simone project - Single Handed. This is in fact a 4th season, with only 2 episodes per season previously shown. Also added to the site - the press release from ITV about the new series. Click here.
We have more to add to the site, but until we get a more stable internet connection we can't do more than we've done. So please, do monitor the news page for more when we can do it.
Finally, the Eilidh Brown Website has some ongoing issues with PayPal, which means you cannot donate at the moment. Apologies about this, and they hope to resolve the problem as soon as they can, but it has taken longer than expected.
