Glory is at the tips of my whiskers… time for Purdey’s PAWS Awards 2013!
Another star-studded year has rolled around, and we find ourselves treading the red carpet once again, confident in the expectation of a BAFTA, an Oscar and a Golden Globe.
So much talent, so many costly productions, so much drama… I’m thinking purely of myself here. This is the second year of the PAWS – Purdey’s Awards for Worldwide Stardom – invented so that my acting abilities receive the recognition that they deserve.
Like last year, I’m generously allowing my fluffy friend, Ponyo, to have a chance of fame. I notice that Ponyo’s roles have been fairly passive of late. You won’t see her doing her own stunts! Two words, Pon: Workout DVD.
Anyway, all you have to do is vote for me… I mean, vote for your favourite movie and favourite actor. The winner will receive a beautiful golden fir cone, and hopefully a largish piece of cheeeese. Ah, cheeese…
To cast your vote, please use the ‘Comments’ form at the bottom of the page, and feel free to leave some praise, too. I don’t mind if it’s lavish. The winner will be announced when I’m in the lead, sometime in February. Thank you for voting!
My nominations…

I vote for Ponyo in the “Hangover” she does this very well, perfect acting skills right there! Although I was tempted by Purdey in Paranormal Activity! I think you should open the competition to all your readers and let them submit some! that would be fun! x
Jo Woolf
Great idea, will do! That’s one vote for Ponyo, then. I won’t tell Purdey yet!

“Phantom Menace” is a winner in my book Jo!
Jo Woolf
Good choice! That’s one of Purdey’s favourite roles. Thank you!

I’ve never before realised how tough it must be to decide who gets an Oscar. Both actors represented here would be worthy winners but I think my vote goes to Purdey for A Passage to India.
Jo Woolf
That is a very discerning and diplomatic answer, Lorna – thank you! Purdey enjoyed her role in A Passage to India but she was disappointed to find that it didn’t involve any travel.

It was a tough call, but my vote goes to Purdey for her sterling work in Jaws 2 – a very impressive set of gnashers! Close runner up is Ponyo in The Hangover.
Jo Woolf
Purdey was unsure about her ‘Jaws’ role but a pheasant feather brought out exactly the right kind of emotions. ‘The Hangover’ is a film just made for Ponyo, however! Thanks for your vote!

Lovely photos!
One vote goes for “The Hunger Games” and one for “Pride and Prejudice”.
I don’t know if I’m allowed, but I love these two photos.

Thank you, Cornel! Both Purdey and Ponyo will be happy! Is Tom not wishing to take up acting yet?
