TODAY we remember TWO gentlemen who were, as we all know, close friends to
Peter Cushing. By a strange quirk of fate, they SHARED their birthday's
today, on the 27th May. 😃
Christopher Lee and Vincent Price... Sadly, neither are no longer with
us... Lee's passing was in June 2015. A sad loss even at his age...we
just didn't want him to go. He was, Peter Cushing's closest friend . .
celebrated and remembered here, almost
as much as Peter. He had a career that stretched across almost every
genre in the industry. His accomplishments were many, his skill as an
actor even as he grew frail, never left him... and neither did we.
Today, we mark his birthday and celebrate a remarkable career and life!
Happy Birthday Christopher Lee!

wonderful publicity photograph of both Peter Cushing and Vincent Price
while recording the BBC radio serial 'ALIENS OF THE MIND' in 1977. Do
you REMEMBER this radio series being broadcast?
SO,
PETER YESTERDAY, Christopher Lee AND.... VINCENT PRICE today! Nothing I
can say here that hasn't already been said about the versatile
Vinnie... certainly a 'Man of the Arts', whose distinctive voice and
excellent performances in fantasy films, made him a firm favourite for
over 40 years! His career spanned other genres, including film noir,
drama, mystery, thriller, and comedy. He appeared on
stage, television, radio, and in over one hundred films.... a good
friend of both Peter and Christopher, though only appeared on screen
with them BOTH just the once, in 'The House of the Long Shadows' in
1983. He is still greatly missed, much and much celebrated, Vincent... a
man and actor who could never be replaced... HAPPY BIRTHDAY Vincent
Price!
