What a site!
Posted by Bombyx Mori on February 13th, 2009
We are sure you’d agree that no website would be complete without a party hat-wearing frog, and so without further ado, here it is; the new, revamped Bill Bailey site. Featuring the marvellous illustrations of Max Ellis, the site was designed and developed by Manchester Web Design company Vanilla Storm.
You will now be able to watch “Glassbox TV” – a virtual telly of our very own – currently showing the first two episodes of Behind The Tinsel, which documents behind the scenes shenanigans of Bill’s Tinselworm shows (featuring both the arena tours and the recent run in London’s West End). The episodes were created by a man with a camera called Daniel Mudford (the man – not the camera) and edited by a man called Matt Roberts. Thank you, men.
In the ‘Tour’ section, you’ll find some interactive tour programmes (from the Bewilderness, Steampunk and Part Troll shows), where you can turn each page with the click of your mouse and not get ink on your fingers.
We do so hope that you like what you find. Commence enjoyment thereof.

Marvellous stuff! Kept me occupied for a good proportion of a very dull day of numbing inevitability yesterday.
One question, though. What’s happened to the RSS feed for Latest News? Is it coming back, or has it been lost forever in a tunnel of cheese and weasels? I see the RSS feed to follow an individual thread, but not to get new news items.
Or am I just being incredibly De-Burgh-ish and missing it?

Well spotted Leese. This feed has now moved to a new location but we missed off the icon. This is now in the right hand column!
Subscribe away!

Notwithstanding the lovely new and shiny website, is there any chance of succumbing to the twitter thing too? Just a short update every now and again about the quality of tea and coffee making facilities, just to keep us up to date on the state of your mind.

Ah, thanks, Helper Worm! Never again shall I miss news of… well, news.
May I also second a vote for Twitter? All the cool kids are doing it, y’know. By which of course I mean Stephen Fry.
