The Celebrity Voicemail Show

Imagining what the voicemails left on celebrity answerphones could sound like. In this episode, messages that might have been left for George Lucas while shooting Star Wars.

Bafta Award-winning Kayvan Novak has adapted his critically acclaimed Radio 4 comedy, The Celebrity Voicemail Show, for 大象传媒 Three. The programme imagines what it would be like to listen to the voicemails left on a celebrity's answerphone.

In this episode, Kayvan imagines the answerphone messages that might have been left for George Lucas midway through his hectic, and often shambolic, first phase of shooting on Star Wars in the Tunisian desert. From Alec Guinness's agent quibbling over a percentage of the unfinished film's gross profits, to an inept special effects technician struggling to find a sound suitable for 'the electric swords'.
