I have some exciting news for the new year.  Watch out for announcements on the official Gary Lucy site and here on my blog.

It is a sad day for both us who enjoy watching and Gary who enjoyed working at ITVs The Bill. After four years of playing Will Fletcher. Gary said ” I enjoyed filming The Bill and made some great friends both in front of and behind the camera. I just felt it was time for a new challenge. The cast and crew saw me through the first four years of my daughters life and shared many joyous moments with me, Ones i will never forget. A big shout to Chris Simmonds and John Bird who both helped me through my bike crash. I leave the show in a strong position on at 9pm thursday evenings on ITV1 and wish everyone all the success in the future.”

Well we will miss ya in the cop cars and uniform !

Gary has just finished filming the one off ITV drama Whatever it takes  2009. We caught up with him “Ive Just finished whats been a lovely shoot with Amy and Shane. Whatever it takes is a bit of fun and proved to be the case whilst filming the drama. It was great for me to play a different character and look forward to seeing it.”

We are pleased to report Gary was sent home today and have heard from the ‘horses mouth’ Its good news ” Well thanks for your concern, im fine just a few bumps and bruises ! ….Got lucky i guess. The bike was a mess, so to only have heavy bruising was a blessing ! Thanks again for your thoughts.”

We have some bad news today as Gary came off his motorbike !  The accident occurred outside the set of the Bill as Gary was leaving for the night. A motorcycle fan (something he shares with his Bill character), Gary is an inexperienced rider as he only past his test 4 mnths ago. So we all wish him a swift recovery.

We caught up with Gary today to talk through his decision to quit the hit ITV drama series Footballers Wives. Heres what he had to say ” Well thats the end for Kyle Pascoe in footywives. If i can just rewind for 3 years when i first got cast in the new series for ITV. It was an exciting new concept with the already successful ‘Shed’ production team behind it. We had a fantastic first season shooting with my lovely ‘wife’ Chardonnay. Little did we know what was in store ! The show was a massive success, colourful entertainment at its best. Two further season followed where the cast slightly changed and the show grew. Alas everything has to come to an end and after the third we said our sad goodbyes. The show continues and i wish them every success.” xx
