Ben seems to be one of the few thinking outside the box when it comes to porn.

Fair play to him. As for overworking, he has a good guy behind him pulling the strings to make it happen.

In fact he seems to be taking it all in his merry stride.

Is it not the case that in porn, age has to be treated with care, Frank can get away with it as he looks like a bit of a nutty porn professor and Jim like an English gentleman, whereas, is Ben beginning to look a bit seedy.

Mr Thring, I also worked with Arthur Askey (Before he died) in panto at Richmond Theatre in Dick Wittington. He did his busy bee song on stage in front of a thousand delighted old folk who all happily sang along. I recall having severe sound problems because of feedback from the old folks deaf aids. Here is another great star who will have you tapping your feet Mr Thring!

Agreed! From what I see of the production side of porn,things are not what they were.It seems that many are hurrying to stand still.Where will it all end?

"It seems that many are hurrying to stand still........."

Good expression! I suppose porn is like any other industry or business that is in decline. You can either sit there, whinge go down with the sinking ship or you can try to make something of a bad situation.

Ben's desperately trying to become a "celeb" in a culture that abhors and shuns the good folk of porn. A culture that if you were to look at a bit of porn on your work computer, you could be driven out of your job. Or to be seen on Facebook and tagged to porno folk, could raise serious questions in certain jobs.

UK life is far more puritanical and hypocrital now than ever before. I fear Ben might be 10 years late, starting on the long, pot-holed road to "Celebrity!" It will be a very hard slog. But a heck of alot better than sitting still and whinging and moaning. all the time.
