Ewan attended a new event today: the launch of the race to Dakar, Senegal, in London. Charley Boorman and the Race to Dakar team unveiled their BMW F650 GS Dakar race bikes at the official team launch today in central London. It’s only a month before Charley and his Race to Dakar team-mates of Simon Pavey and Matt Hall will face the toughest challenge of their lives. The three-rider team will contest the 16-day 2006 Dakar Rally and ride over 8,500 km encompassing some of the most gruelling off-road terrain imaginable. We wish them good luck in this new adventure! PS: I’m still behind with reading and answering my emails, because, like I said before, it hasn’t been working for more than a week. But I’d like to thank everyone who sent me nice emails or Ewan contributions.

I’ve started – only started – capping “The Island”, but I already have 365 caps! It may take a while until I finish the entire film, because Ewan is quite a lot in it and I’ve been very busy lately. But I’ll be adding caps little by little, so stay tuned! I’ve made very detailed caps up until now, but I have to warn you that I won’t be making very detailed caps of the action scenes. They take lots of time to cap and the caps never end up looking that great. So I prefer to concentrate on scenes that will end up as great caps. 😉 EDIT: 210 new caps were added to the gallery this Saturday, November 26th. 😉

I got my “Island” DVD today, so I made 289 screen captures from the making of for our viewing pleasure. 😉 I did my best while capping the action scenes, but, in case you don’t know, it’s very hard to come up with a “perfect” cap when there’s too much movement. Well, I hope you’ll all enjoy them! 🙂

Thanks a lot to the lovely Riikka for capping the extras from the “Tube Tales” DVD especially for us. “Tube Tales” features a segment directed by Ewan himself.

Thanks a lot to my friend Jen for the awesome DVD caps of RoTS. :tongue:
