CUSHING'S COFFEE AND COFFIN NAILS : RATE YOUR FRANKENSTEIN : QUICKIE QUIZ AND CHRISTOPHER LEE ASKS 'WHAT DO I DO FOR AN ENCORE?'


AN ADDITION TO CHRISTOPHER LEE birthday post, here is another very interesting INTERVIEW! Lots to see here and some more interest stories with Lee sharing his thoughts on the American method of film making at the time, his love of opera, the 'art' of making the unbelievable- believable and his time with Hammer films and Peter Cushing!


OVER AT THE FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE TODAY, I've had a quick look through the Peter Cushing Frankenstein posts, and it reveals these two Hammerfilms titles, appear to have more than their fair share of negative responses. But how would you rate them against each other? I'd love to read any of your thoughts and opinions on your rating too. Ten is highest 😉 Have fun! This could be interesting... 


ALSO AT THE PCASUK FACEBOOK PAGE PETER CUSHING fights the GOOD fight! We're asking for the thread 'what film is this and who is he playing?? and 'only THE correct FULL name please' 😊  It's a challenge, that ain't that simple . . .


FOLLOWING A BIT OF INTEREST a few days ago in this magazine photo advertisement that Peter Cushing did for NESCAFE in what I think was the late 50's 1960's, promoted me to think of another AD he did at another time. Peter Cushing was very much a tea man, in the morning, afternoon, night-time and any other time, he could fit in the flow of a cup or four! He would think nothing of having a constant stream of his favourite brew at the ready. What my Gran called a 'Tea Belly'! Which makes a bit of a mockery of his 1960's press advert for instant #Nescafe coffee! Hey! It's work! 😕😏😃😉 


THE COFFEE AD TURNED UP on the 'POSTS BY OTHERS' at the FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE section where Dave Robbins of Nottingham (?) UK, posted the coffee ad, he says he had not seen before. Well, there's more AD's like these and one in particular, from a time and attitude 'loooog gooone' for 'Deadly Lady Tobacco' comes to mind, with a strap line, that would get advert and promotion guru's spluttering their coffee and coughing their 'coffins nails' across many, many miles! - Have a great day everyone and take care - Marcus

NEW MARK HAMILL TALKS PETER CUSHING

MARK HAMILL SHARES the story of the day, he met Peter Cushing. Now, for some out there, you maybe asking yourself, why would actor MARK HAMILL want to meet actor Peter Cushing, even going into the studio on his day off? Hamill knew his chances of meeting Cushing were slim, as he didn't actually share any scenes with him in the film STAR WARS. The fact is, HAMILL was and still is a FAN. He LOVES Peter Cushing's work, grew up watching his Hammer films, and is very knowledgeable not only about Peter's work, but also about the man and his life too. SO, here was his golden opportunity. WATCH MARK HAMILL share his memories of the day, he met PETER CUSHING. . .
