"So this meal on Saturday?" Amelia starts. Adam is staying at Brian for the next week for some tour rehearsals stuff for the next Queen + Adam Lambert Europe tour at the beginning of November. And he's shooting his cameo appearance in the film.

Brian frowns, "What about it?" She'd been okay to come when he asked her earlier in the week. To have a catch-up, Brian planned a meal at his with Roger and Sarina joining, Adam and of course Amelia. Freddie will also be there but he will be in bed.

"Would you mind if I brought my boyfriend?" She bit her lip eye trained on the set in front of them.

Brian, Roger and Amelia are currently behind set watching Freddie's birthday scent being filmed. "What boyfriend?" Roger whispering so the cameras don't pick him up jaw dropped.

Brian looks just as baffled, "Since when did you have a boyfriend?"

"The beginning of September. Look I'm asking because I want you to meet him, he's nothing like Michael, I promise. He's a good man and he gets on well with Freddie."

"He's already met, Freddie?" Roger worries that this is happening too quickly and they have every reason to be concerned after Michael, "You've only been dating what three or four weeks?"

"Yes but I've known him July, it was only three weeks ago that we decided to make a go of it." She's not going to bring up 2002 until they're okay with her dating Gwilym.

"Well if you've known him since July that's a bit better, yeah I suppose it wouldn't hurt to bring him to the meal," Brian knows Anita would only overrule him in a heartbeat anyway.

Speaking of his wife, she should be here any minute to meet the cast along with Kash. Kash got in touch with Brian a few days ago and asked if she could come to set.

"Good," Amelia got a message from Kash saying she's here as the scene cuts, "I'll go greet Aunt Kash."

"Milly, look at you. You look more like my brother every day," Kash pulls her niece into a hug, "But you've grown so beautifully. How's Freddie?"

Amelia leads her aunt through the back of set, "Growing far too quickly for my liking. I can't believe he's six already but he's loving school. I'll bring him over to see you again soon."

"I'd love that."

Kash's reaction to seeing Rami as Freddie was completely different to Amelia's, she laughed, "Wow you look exactly like him, how bizarre." Then the tears start to form, "How I wish he was here to see this, he would blush to know that a film is being made about him and Queen."

"I hope we make him proud with this film," Rami smiles giving her a tour of the current set.Brian gets a message from Anita saying she's here and takes Gwilym with him to meet her. They were gone for a few minutes before they return Anita with them.

The older woman goes straight over to Amelia whispering, "He certainly has my seal of approval and I'm not just saying that because he's cast as Brian. I can see why you like him and all though Roger and Brian may be shocked at first I think they might actually be okay with him."

"Well he's coming to the meal on Saturday so I'll introduce him as my boyfriend to Brian and Roger then and not before," She tells her mum with a warning tone as not to say a word, "Now come and meet the others."

"So they have no idea I'm coming?" Gwilym asks as Amelia turns into the drive.

"Mum does, she likes you by the way, but Brian and Roger don't know anything beyond that I'm bringing my boyfriend. I'm not too worried though, Brian likes you and so does Roger, I think once they get over the initial shock they will be okay about it." She hopes so anyway. They have enough film that they can't fire him at least.
