Huge spread on Sir Michael in the Mail today - it tries to be nasty but fails. |

And checking Google (I remember telling Andy in the late 90's that I'd discovered this brilliant new search engine - still love it) I find that Fulton MacKay played Squeers too - before Armstrong I think (I saw them both in 81/82). Fulton was superb too (you'll remember him from Porridge).
Anyone else see those original fantastic RSC events? |

Just watching New Tricks (again - I've seen them all first time around but there's nothing else on) reminded me another of my favourite British actors - Alun Armstrong.
He was magic as Squeers in Nicholas Nickleby years ago. |

Talking of exageration...
Just be careful they don't backdate you having some kind of illegal underage sexual fling with him LOL;)
Oh and yes be careful of any dna you may leave lying around on the cashpoint buttons....let it degrtade just enough then they'll probally try to use it against you if ever the machine is robbed...
...yes of course people do twist things....and how many of your jury still tell tales of your trial to their mates down the pub...getting more and more exagerated with each drunken rendition?
Hell I'm back in ole Blightey for a holiday next week..just hope I survive long enough out of the Police clutches to go back to ukraine again. |

and who was on the next machine but Sir Michael Gambon.
"Good afternoon", I said. "One of our finest actors".
"One of our finest perverts", he replied - NO, I'm only joking.
He wished me a good afternoon too.
That voice.
No matter how big a star I become (and surely I cannot get any bigger than I am?) - just like everyone, I'm impressed by seeing a star.
Which was one of the points (ignored) of my defence.
Not only do people always remember meeting celebrities but they tend to inflate and exaggerate as the years go on.
A chance encounter becomes a close friendship.
In a couple of decades I fully intend to claim I had a passionate affair with the late, great Lord Michael Gambon.
(PS - he is one of my favourite actors). |
