SYMPATHY FOR FRANKENSTEN: PETER CUSHING 'THE EVIL OF FRANKENSTEIN' (1964)
One of the few entries in the Hammer Films saga where you feel more than a little sympathy for Peter Cushing's Baron. 'When will they ever leave me alone' a reference to the ever present rampaging villagers and authorities who always seem to be his undoing in the end. The Evil of Frankenstein was Peter Cushing's third appearance as Baron Frankenstein for Hammer Films in 1964.

MORECAMBE AND WISE: PETER CUSHING 'WHAT ABOUT MY MONEY?'
WHAT
ABOUT MY MONEY?: This is lovely and we'd thought you'd like it too.
Eric Morecambe was one half of a much loved comedy duo called Morecambe
and Wise. Eric, whose real name was Eric Bartholomew took his stage name
from the town in which he was born.. Morecambe in Lancaster, UK. There
are several pieces of public art around the town commemorating
Morecambe's most famous son. This is one can be found
near a statue of Eric on the sea front, it names all the famous actors
and celebrities who appeared on their shows and some 'one liners' of
dialogue, this one of course refers to Peter's never ending saga of
trying to get his cheque for his appearance in 1970. The gag ran for
several guest appearances over a ten year run!

HELEN AND PETER CUSHING AT TV AWARDS DORCHESTER HOTEL 1956 VIDEO CLIP
Film clips of Peter and his wife Helen are
quite rare. But, we found one recently at the ITN resource library. It's
Peter and Helen in 1956 arriving at the Dorchester Hotel in London for
the 'Television Top Ten News Chronicle Awards' Peter won The Best Actor
that year. It's short but worth seeing.
