Hi there, just wondering if there's an Frank Sidebottom fans on here? If anyone remembers the poppies were on Franks Fantastic shed show in 1992. Anyway a documentary is being made about him and the man behind the mask, but it needs funding, have a look at this http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/126 ... evey-story cheers

Nice one. Reckon that's got to be worth £20.

I do love the £5000 to have nothing to do with the project option
Zero half measures (What a carve up!)

There is a film coming out with Micheal Fassbender in which seems to rip off Frank. I think they have admitted its 'inspired by him' or 'loosely based on him' however it looks a bit like a cash in now he's passed away. Not sure if there is some agreement with Franks' family. I mean, they have Little Frank to look after you know.

Not sure what to say. Obviously the head looks all wrong in those Daily Mail (spit) pics, but I'd like to see the film.

Hope some royalties are paid to his family, if he's got one.
