1234 is a witty and affectionate take on the story of the rock 'n' roll dreams of bespectacled Stevie, who endures a job he despises alongside call center colleague/drummer extraordinaire Neil. When they persuade the ambitious Billy and talented Emily to start a new band, the possibility they might be onto something good presents itself. With a demo to tout, they set off to beat the well-trodden path of record companies and gig venues in hopes of conquering the British indie music scene.

In addition to assembling a fantastic soundtrack, director/writer Giles brought together a talented cast of up-and-coming young British actors, including Ian Bonar (Atonement, Starter for Ten), Lyndsey Marshal (The Hours), Kieron Bew (The Street) and Mathew Baynton (Gavin & Stacey).

In this post-screening Q&A lead actors Mathew Baynton and Ian Bonar discuss the film and offer insights into the making of the film and the director's filmmaking process.

The discussion is lead by independent producer and Watershed board member Paul Appleby.
