Is Leepy and agent of Virgin Media?
Congratulations on winning the prize!
What a pity that Leepy wasn't shortlisted. The comments on this board are testament to what I warned on the comments sections of this films; comments which were deleted even though Leepy's abusive comments remain.
I'd like now to present a conspiracy theory to you: is Leepy actually an agent of Virgin Media? Created to abuse filmmakers, whip up controversy and drive traffic to the site?
Lee Price - the man behind 'Leepy' - used to work for Virgin Radio so maybe the theory is not as far fetched as it might sound...
Spooky!

Beautiful
Hey Lads I saw your submission for the first time tonight on virgin tv, and the only way that I can describe it is as beautiful.
My personal taste in film is a lot more bleak & antisocial than your submission how ever it left me with a really good feeling so I would like to personally thank you for that.
All the best mate, Michael McCleary.

Ha kevin spacey didnt turn up?
He sussed it out! he see through it,the middle class parade of bum lickers.. The rigged T4 get the connection actors from T4 series in the So called public favourite cgi eyes brows! This competition was a flop a con,im not shamed of my words i could wipe any talent out there at the moment acting comedy music the lot,what the HELL was them judges thinking anyone and i mean anyone with half a brain couldve seen that kneecapped wouldve rockeD at the v festival tent,and the public vote i got 2500 people to view my vids from my myspace so WHAT THE HELL IS the peoples choice all about! Virgin Media conned the public not so much virgin as to say but the clueless people that work for richard Branson, Too many posh mummy boys making the decisions! No black artists,no working class artists? I mean really Cgi brows they were already established and loaded with money,you can tell that already! This competion is finished and really says a lot about how xxxx this country is at discovering new talent... WHICH is supposed to be yet again UNDISCOVERED talent...... Kev spacey is back in our good books......

Well done great, 10-out-of-10
You have taken such a lovely story to film well! I enjoyed the simplicity but showing us the true complexity or young life growing up. I myself and like many others, have been in this very young situation. Well done great, 10-out-of-10
