Sheen is one of my favourite actors so this is fantastic news.

Should get him playing Blair again too

Was thinking maybe the video could start out with Sheen playing the Russian chess player (whichever one it is, a shame if they've got the wrong people playing together, I hate inaccuracies!) and then morphing into Tony Blair!

Yes, that would indeed be preferable!

I wonder if this is gonna have any effect on sales. Suede managed to put John Hurt in drag in a video and somehow, nobody cared. The single seems to be going down well in the media, and I dunno... Michael Sheen, Manic Street Preachers... is this something even the 3am girls might pick up on? They did want mass communication... Should get a few plays on the music channels.

Funny seeing Manic related tweets on M. Sheen's Twitter page. Good stuff though!

I can't see any. Only on the one for his fansite (or it could be official site) but definitely nothing on the one on his own personal twitter page. What are you looking at?

Amazing news, absolute legend of an actor, might encourage more video plays too!

Dunno if it was his personal Twitter page. Just had the Tweets from ManicPostcards on it!
