STAR WARS: PETER CUSHING SMOKING TARKIN : THE DISAPEARING CIGARETTE REAPPEARS!


Do you remember the Star Wars behind scenes photograph that we posted for the first time a few months ago, featuring Peter, Mark Hamill and Dave Prowse? The one that looked as if '..someone, somewhere in the cut and paste shop had deliberately painted out the cigarette that Peter was holding in his gloved left hand?

PETER CUSHING: GRAND MOFF TARKIN SLIPPERS ON SET PHOTOGRAPHS 'STAR WARS' (1977)


I've had so many requests and queries about this one over the last few days...so here it is again: Peter Cushing wearing his carpet slippers during the shooting of 'STAR WARS' in 1977. For those who don't know the story behind this... Peter took a size 12 in footwear. On the first day of shooting, Peter discovered the boots were far too small.. as the wardrobe department could not source a larger pair of boots at short notice, Peter wore his carpet slippers in his mid and close up shots. Yes... he blew up Alderaan in his slippers!
