Still a little bit rock 'n' roll - Globe and Mail - August 27, 2008

Hugh Dillon, who cut his teeth as lead singer of the Headstones, keeps racking up the hits, with a Gemini nod for Durham County and praise for Flashpoint

Globe and Mail - August 27, 2008 at 3:31 AM EDT

Rock 'n' roll never forgets, but times change.

Back in his wild days as lead singer of the Headstones, Hugh Dillon was all about the music, and any other method of creative expression never crossed his mind. And even if it did - some memories remain hazy - acting was at the very bottom of his list.

"I never really liked actors or acting back then," says Dillon with a smile and a shrug. "It was acting, you know? I wasn't great at working with others or the group collaboration. At the time, all I could handle was making music with four other people."

Flashpoint moves to Thursday nights at 10pm on CBS (US) and CTV (Canada).
 

Smart and deeply disturbing, this is one must-see drama

Do you want to be disturbed? Of course you do.

You want visceral, primal fear involving love, abandonment and death. Everybody does. It's what people get from horror movies, thriller novels and, occasionally, TV. We have a powerful emotional attachment to the thrill of being made afraid by fiction. Often, the closer the fiction is to our own lives, the more powerful the experience.

I shall illustrate by telling you a wee story.

New CTV series 'Flashpoint' picked up by CBS

A new CTV original drama currently in pre-production has been picked up by American network CBS for broadcast later this year.

"Flashpoint," whose working title was "Sniper," is a police drama about an elite group of cops known as the Strategic Response Unit (SRU). They are highly-skilled enforcement officers that rescue hostages, bust gangs, and defuse bombs.

The SRU are also trained to get inside a suspect's head and find their emotional breaking point, or the "flashpoint," which triggered the crisis.

The team is inspired by Toronto's real-life Emergency Task Force.
