Savage is Imminent...

It's around this time each year that the flora and fauna blossom, we all head straight for the nearest beer garden after work and most of today's youth venture onwards to sunnier climates for sunburn and venereal disease. But, this summer has something else in store. Something far greater than cricket, pop-up picnics and afternoon teas. In summer 2013, the UK has GINX TV!! As you can see from the MCV press shot above; the four amigos will be bringing you all the latest gaming news, 24hrs a day! Finally, 'Planet of the Apps' will be available to watch on Virgin Media. Yes! We wrapped the brand new series recently which we evolved into a more aspirational round-up with gadgets, gizmos and insight from industry experts. I was cooking with apps, working out with apps, I even made a movie with apps! Whilst we work on pre-production for series 2, I've begun shooting a brand new show focused on the opening 60 minutes of brand new games and recent modern classics called 'The First Hour' which runs weekly on the channel. Such a blast to make with regular appearances from select members of the Ginx production team, it's definitely one to watch out for! In other news, I recently shot a dating show pilot called 'The Dating Games' with the NFTS which saw 3 lads battle it out in a series of challenges to win a young lasses affection. She was completely in the dark as to what they looked like until the end so guess it is pretty much a cross between Blind Date and The Crystal Maze. Needless to say, my suggestion of calling it 'Blind Maze' fell on deaf ears. Definitely keeping it on the back-burner though. Held the fort down on 'The Blurb' on Challenge TV as well as making an influential appearance on ITV2's 'Girlfriends' which you'll have to watch out for come September. Never has such an extravagant tee been worn on camera. I've had some amazing opportunities these past few months but the big one is imminent, please do keep in touch on twitter @imadamsavage and keep your eyes firmly fixed on the telly because Savage is coming soon... xoxo
