HERE'S A VERY NEAT colour photograph of Peter Cushing and actress Barbara Shelley during the making of The Gorgon at Bray studios. I purchased the original negative for this publicity photograph back in the late 1970's, it's been posted here once before, but it's a good one.

WHEN THIS PIC WAS POSTED at the FACEBOOK PCASUK FAN PAGE yesterday someone asked if I wasn't worried about posting such a rare pic, on Facebook... So I explained, I post pics for
people to do exactly that, to share. Anything I have, own or is sent to
me by good folk out there I share. BUT I also include a bit of promo
text on the pic, to share where it has been cleaned and repaired if necessary...
here. In the majority of cases these are pics on which, we do not own
the copyright, this is a hobby, no money exchanged or made. :)
There are authors and collectors out there though, that are under the
impression that the little watermark is implying I or we own them...
nope. This pic today I do own, hence my name. Happens rarely. If you
post something on the net, it's gone, the world owns it today. If anyone
wants to repost or share a pic that's wonderful. If you want to take it
and take off the watermark, that's not really the game.. but your
choice, so many here are posted for the first time, so people who know
their stills... know where it has come from and that someone has lifted
the watermark. Weird that people would do that, unless they maybe dislike or hate the
page 😄😉... or us having fun and a reward for working so hard on the posts
for fans and keeping the memory of Peter Cushing alive and relevant. . . who knows??? But, I am sure... some do 😉😊
THE LATEST painting by artist, #DARYLJOYCE 😊 This one is a cracker, you think? 😊 After the not so roaring success of the sequel to #DrWho and the Daleks (1965) film, 'Dalek Invasion Earth 2150 AD' (1966) the planned next #Dalek / Dr Who / #PeterCushing feature film, based on the #BBC tv episode 'The Chase' sadly didn't happen... BUT what a treat it could have been, if it HAD! Congrats to Daryl on another fine piece of work! 😊😉

REPOST
: CUSHING IN AUSTRALIA 1977! The text taken from Cushing's second
book Past Forgetting: Memoirs of the Hammer Years published in 1988.
'In western Australia, where I thoroughly enjoyed working with John Izzard of swan television in 1977, I had quite an extraordinary experience with an ostrich, a tobacco addict! It stalked me, its beady eyes watching my every move and each time I lit a cigarette, it shot its neck out (like a chameleons tongue catching some runaway insect) and snatched the fag from my lips!! Perhaps Rod Hull encountered that same bird, and got the idea for his act with emu?'

CHRISTOPHER
LEE once said that Peter Cushing had a laugh that could clear a
restaurant in 30 seconds flat! And it must be said, if you ever get the
chance to catch a clip of Peter laughing, it was a belter!
