I don't know if anyone's read this or not, but I thought I'd post it here.



LONDON (AFP) - Ewan McGregor said he is sick of Britain's "ludicrous nanny state" rules, which he said might force him to quit the country, in an interview to be published Tuesday.

Health and safety regulations were becoming "insane", the 36-year-old film star told the weekly Radio Times magazine.

The Scottish actor, who played the young Obi-Wan Kenobi in the most recent Star Wars trilogy, blasted the rise of security cameras and London's congestion charge, which forces drivers to pay to enter the city centre.

McGregor recently completed a 15,000-mile (24,000-kilometre) motorcycle adventure, riding the length of Africa with best friend and fellow actor Charley Boorman.

"Our trip opened my eyes to how insane the rules are in Britain -- CCTV cameras everywhere, congestion charge -- a ludicrous nanny state.

"If anything drives me out of the country it will be that -- not tax, I don't earn enough."

When Daniel Craig was unveiled as the new James Bond actor in October 2005, he was forced to wear a life jacket as he sped through London on a boat up the River Thames.

It was somewhat out of keeping for the daredevil fictional British spy, in a press call stunt widely acknowledged as having backfired.

"It's not his fault. He's doing what he's told," McGregor groaned.

"Today, health and safety are out of control. In Africa, garage attendants smoked as they filled the bikes. I took great pleasure in that."

McGregor has starred in "Trainspotting" (1996), "A Life Less Ordinary" (1997), "Rogue Trader" (1999), "Moulin Rouge!", "Black Hawk Down" (2001), and "Miss Potter" (2006).

He made the first of three outings as Kenobi in 1999 in "Star Wars Episode I: The Phantom Menace".

McGregor and Boorman rode from John O'Groats, Britain's most northerly settlement, to Cape Agulhas, the southern tip of South Africa, for a BBC television series.

The Scot said he was touched by the kindness offered to him in Africa.

"People are nice to us because we're travellers, and the most generous and happiest are often those who have the least, whereas in Britain we're devastatingly depressed, yet have so much," McGregor said.

Boorman added: "We never got fed up with each other, but sometimes I couldn't stand the smell after a few days without a shower." Source'>

Okay, so I have a bit of a favor to ask of all you fellow Ewan lovers.

I had forgotten that Ms. Potter was coming out, so I rented it on Friday. An LJ friend of mine told me she LOVED it. I watched it last night, and I LOVED it too.

Now, our blue eyed Scottish hottie SINGS in this movie.

Unfortunately, I checked out the soundtrack today and they don't have a version of him singing the song that he only sings a little of in the move on the soundtrack. Someone else sings it.

BUT, I was wondering if there's anyone else who's rented/bought the movie who would be willing to rip the song from the DVD and upload it so that I could have the song. I would attempt doing this myself but I have no clue how to do so.

( Here is the scene I'm talking about )

Now, in return for this, I offer an absolutely awesome blooper from Moulin Rouge that I just found, of Ewan singing Your Song.

( Blooper, blooper, Ewan has a blooper! )

I would be eternally grateful to anyone willing to do this for me. :D

I've been rather lax with the updaing of journal I realise... but I think I'm making up for it now =D

We're feeding people who do not love us and saving a man who wants us dead. I've changed my mind, I no longer love you. Now can I eat?

One hilight:

To his credit, McGregor remains oblivious to his appeal, which only enhances his magnetism.

"It's not like there are strangers out there falling in love with me."

Actually, it's exactly like that.

"Bollocks."

No, really.

"Well, I've never had panties thrown at me. Not once. And it's about time that changed. Right here, right now. Ladies, get your pants off!"

Done, and DONE!
