About This Site
The best way around this site is via the links bars, which are across the top of eachpage. There are three main sections; "Films", "Fan-Films", "The Haberdashery". Each of these sections contain a menu list of our films; should you see a film which interests you, the link "Download Page" will take you to a page where you can save the film to your desktop. Once downloaded, you can return to the menu via the links bar.We also host a number of external audio groups who are friends of ours; we also host a portfolio of music for our darling composer, Peter Wicks under the name "Polecat Mental Oblivion". These groups can be accessed by clicking on the "Audios" option.

Where We Came From
We've been making either audios or videos in some form since 1992! The videos started when JMKH Productions (our old name) moved into making videos (from audios) back in 1998 when we made "Future Investment" as an audio. We decided we liked it enough to make it into a video! And it all got off the ground then. We became 'Westlake Enterprises' as an injoke to Future Investment as that was the name of Gail Westlakes evil company! Its a name which, thanks to John Isles stuck around long enough for us to get a name through it! The name changed to Westlake Films when we set up our own site on May 25th 2005 because we didn't want to be too corporate... and haven't really looked back since! We've made all our films available for download, so hopefully there should be something for all tastes. If not, let us know your interest as its something we've forgotten!
Westlakes Online History
Our first online presence was as part of a site called 'Timelord' back in 1999 with a small selection of audio adventures and a couple of videos under the care of Kenny Davidson. Timelord was a site dedicated to presenting Doctor Who fiction, art, games and audio/visuals to fans of Doctor Who. We remained part of the Timelord site for a number of years until 2005 when we created this site. The site continues today as an archive of the webmasters own fiction. You may notice that some of the material on the site have the name 'Random Fiction' or 'Random Film'. This was a site ran by Tim Reid in close association with Timelord.
So... what now?
Well, if you've enjoyed one (or more!) of our films, then we've done our job! The only thing we'd request would be some feedback via our Guestbook. Even if you didn't like something, we'd like to hear from everyone whos taken the time to watch a film of ours. I know everyone says it, but feedback helps us shape what we make and its vital to understanding whats popular... and whats a huge pile of Pertwee.
The Future!
We'll keep making films for as long as people keep enjoying them! It seems as though there are some people still watching, so its unlikely anything will change anytime soon...I'd like to thank you for reading this short piece of boring information, and I'm sure you're glad its over with now!
Take care,Andrew Scott CrinesDecember 2006.
