Their roles in Commitments...

CE: Now the first time you all appeared together in any public way was in the film the Commitments. You all got parts in it!

S: We're still looking for some of us!

C: We're still trying to find some of us in the actual movie, but Andrea definitely got a few lines! It's not that significant!
----- British TV, November 1998, Chris Evans, Transcribed by Tom Mitchell

S: Erm..well, what really happened was...emm...we...Jim knew our now manager, John Hughes, and...eh...John Hughes was working on the film, 'The Commitments', and...erm...y'know...Jo...it was suggested that we put in photographs and tried to get an audition, and that was the first time we got on stage as a band. We performed two covers...on stage...and...ehm...Andrea got a pretty decent small role, and the rest of us...erm...well, we're still looking for us in the film...

C: We haven't found ourselves yet...But we're there, somewhere!

J: 'Blink, and you'll miss it'-roles...

Jesper: 'Blink, and you'll miss it'. But, but Andrea...she was...your sister was polite to say you got a decent role, but your language in the movie, as far as I remember....

A: ...Was quite indecent (laughing)

Jesper: Yeah, wasn't it...w...w..w..the role you played was...eh...the manager of the band, Jimmy Rabbit's little sister.

A: Yes

Jesper: You had some...you had some...

A: I said a few rude lines, and it was very hard for me to do, it's not really in my nature.

J: Yah, right! (laughing)

Jesper: Here we go, here we go! (laughing)

J: Family dispute about to start (laughing)
