Glasgow Film Festival 2011: Colin Morgan on Island

Actor Colin Morgan may be bestknown to TV viewers around the world for his role in the hit BBC series, Merlin, but for his new film he left the character far behind. Premiering at the 2011 Glasgow Film Festival, Island is based on Jane Rogers acclaimed novel. It s a haunting tale in which Colin plays the lonely Calum opposite Natalie Press as Nikki Black. Shortly after Island s premiere at Glasgow s Cineworld, we spoke to Colin about the film and about his return to the city and the cinema in which he spent so much time as a drama student. The Glasgow Film Festival runs from 17 27 February 2011 By Festival vlogger Jonathan Melville
