Lance Henriksen,
Pilot
Since her very first role as Tuesday in the Pilot, Kate Luyben has bagged numerous roles in film and television, often appearing alongside some of Hollywood's biggest stars. Her credits include "Two and a Half Men", "Dead in the Water", "Criminal Minds", "Arrested Development", "The 40 Year Old Virgin", "Bad News Bears", "Dark Angel", "Shanghai Noon" and "Dead Man's Gun" and of course her returning role in Millennium as Eva O'Malley/Marta Danbury in ...Thirteen Years Later, to name but a few. Kate took time from her busy schedule to write to me and kindly agreed to let me share her correspondence with you all. No better time than Tuesday to hear from Tuesday methinks.

Music Montage,
Van Quattro
Well time flies when you're having fun and once again we arrive at Music Monday™, that moment when our video-meister Josef unleashes his latest cinematic offering on the unsuspecting masses and this time it comes endorsed by the star of the show, Van Quattro, as I was able to give him a pre-release screening, if you will. Josef has done some stunning, and quite tireless, work for us of late and it is always a joy when his latest release drops into my inbox. Without further ado, everyone head for the back row with your popcorn and let the show commence (extra kudos to these keen eared souls amongst you who can name the famous film the music from this clip features quite prominently in.)
Contributing something to our Youtube profile is an undeniable way of promoting the campaign, generating interest in us and keeping our troops entertained in the process. Now I know people don't always have the time to commit in the way that Josef has, but a simple recording of yourself calling for a return of Frank Black is a wonderful way to support this campaign and I would be eternally grateful for any donations of that kind. So before you head off to mail another batch of postcards to 20th Century Fox (your mission for the day) leave us a comment or two, show your appreciation for the hard work Josef does for this campaign and tell us what you think of his work. He keeps track of all the comments he receives and responds to any questions so don't be shy, make a new friend.
And whilst we are on the subjects of postcards, the response to those published earlier has been very enthusiastic so it is my intention to produce a card for every episode that Josef captures in video. To see the address to send these postcards to, and to view others you might like to send, click here!Mark x - To visit Josef's Myspace profile and check his original music compositions and more besides, click here!

Competition,
Lucy Butler,
Sarah-Jane Redmond
Ladies and gentlemen, it is that time of the week to announce the winner of our Lights Camera Caption Competition and to be honest it was far too hard to judge. The level of entries I received for this were outstanding so the only option left was to choose an entry at random and I am delighted to announce that Laila Kurlak is the lucky winner with the entry you will see below.
Thanks to each and every one of you for supporting this week and this campaign and, more importantly, congratulations Laila, I hope you enjoy your autographed photograph which will be winging it's way to you shortly.
Now here's my thing. You will see below one more retro postcard, this time taking the form of an conceptual lobby poster and I hope each and every one of you will send one more postcard to 20th Century Fox, let's have one last push in honour of Lucy Butler Week.
The original file for this image was designed A1 size and for every individual who takes a photograph of their completed postcard before mailing it I will send you the original file to print as a poster as I have received a number of enquiries about the possibility of turning the designs into posters. It's my way of saying thank you to you all.
Send your postcards to the following address with a cordial request for a Millennium Movie:
MICHAEL BROIDY
20th Century Fox
10201 W. Pico Blvd.
Bldg. 88, Room 344
Los Angeles, CA 90035
USA
And don't forget to take a picture of the completed postcard and mail it to info@backtofrankblack.com to receive your A1 version of the postcard,
Please keep pushing!

A Room with No View,
DiRT,
Here's My Thing,
Sarah-Jane Redmond
As you know, it has always been of great importance to me to increase this campaign's presence in the form of video promotion and content. Josef has taken that mantle and run with it and we are proud to add another good soul to our team of growing video alchemists. Comics, collectibles, entertainment and wrestling guru DiRT has a number of successful review channels and websites of his own and happens to be a Millennium fan as well.
He has kindly agreed to lend his enjoyable 'masked avenger' style approach to Millennium, releasing a new review for us every Thursday. As it's Lucy Butler Week what better place to start with but 'A Room With No View.'
Whilst our new found friend and ally does the hard work behind the scenes here's where you come in. Agree with his review? Disagree with his review? We want to hear from you whatever the opinion but, most importantly, we want you to thank him and make him more than welcome in the process. I, for one, will be looking forward to each Thursday to see what each new review brings.
So lend your considerable support to the man and go visit his own websites and find out what it's all about. Remember, every video made for the this campaign is an indispensable way of reaching out to a potential new campaigner. Welcome, DiRT!

Barry Renshaw,
Legion,
Lucy Butler,
Merchandise,
Sarah-Jane Redmond
Roll up, roll up! Time to get your infernal claws on a couple of exclusives courtesy of designer and illustrator, Barry Renshaw. Those in the know will already be aware that Barry has created an exclusive range 
of merchandise for this campaign. Taking subtle nods from some of the finest episodes on the canon, Barry has designed a stunning range of T-Shirts, the profit from which is being saved towards a print ad campaign that we so desperately need.
Despite being unduly busy, Barry has created two designs in support of Lucy Butler Week and I am sure you will agree with me that these are just fantastic (click on the images to open them in a new window and view them in better detail.)
Who can forget the scene in Antipas in which Lucy gives Frank Black the bbenefit of her *ahem* attention in the Little Red Wagon Mote
l? Fond of that episode? Well now you can wear that pride quite literally. It doesn't stop there, oh no, when you've that many souls to cater for our Legion Tee should appease the fashionistas out there regardless of which personality is at the fore.
As always, everything we do has a serious message: purchasing a tee from our store raises a small amount of money that will allow us to consider options hitherto unavailable to us so please consider making a donation and looking dapper in the process.
Mark x
Please note, our merchandise store is currently being upgraded and our previous designs are unavailable to view at present. Please check back shortly to view the complete range when the upgrade has completed. Thank you.
