Status Quo go rockin' all over the screen

Rock veterans Status Quo are to enjoy a career resurgence with two feature films celebrating 50 years of heads-down boogie.

The group announced earlier this year they were starring in their own film, Bula Quo!, filmed in Fiji. A second film, a "rockumentary" called Hello Quo, will trace a half-century of "sex, drugs and rock'n'roll". It features new interviews with fans such as Queen's Brian May, Slade, Paul Weller and former ELO star Jeff Lynne.

Guitarist Rick Parfitt said: "We're excited that we've now made the leap from gold discs to the silver screen."
