WHEN SARUMAN AND DOOKU PLAYED GOLF : ONE CLUB TO RULE THEM ALL!


ALONG WITH HIS FAMILY and work, CHRISTOPHER LEE ... had two other great passions in his life. Opera and golf! When he sang, he did it with much aplomb and emotion. His golf wasn't too bad either. Rather than making 'holes' as the Count, here he had much more fun, taking many a skilful swipe on the course , and showing good sportsmanship, even when his shot landed in the 'cabbage' . . . golfing term, I believe for rough grass 😉 Here is a mid 1960's pose with his clubs case, complete with, one of those weird little hat things, they slip onto the club end. Anyone know what these are called??? When they met for the last time, Lee gave Peter a gift of one, that was a Sylvester the Cat design... a reference to their love of one of their most favourite Warner Bros cartoon characters. Yosemite Sam and Foghorn Leghorn made them howl too!

NO FOLK DANCING OR INCEST! CHRISTOPHER LEE SATURDAY!


#CHRISTOPHERLEESATURDAY! Christopher Lee may have had a period of time during his long and successful career where he was type cast, but he also played a huge variety of characters and roles while competing with that unfair perception and reputation... He certainly believed in pushing his boundaries and building his experience. . .Well, in his words, read our banner today. I would have LOVED to have seen the interviewers face and expression, when he came out with this, amusing quip! - Marcus

EIGHTY YEARS YOUNG TODAY : ITS A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY DAME DIANA RIGG!


''WOMEN OF MY AGE ARE STILL ATTRACTIVE. Men of my age are not' ... so said, this amazing icon of entertainment last year. And you know, Dame Enid Diana Elizabeth Rigg, CBE DBE...does have point! Many actors from her era have either left us, or look like an unmade bed! We all know the Cushing Connection here, Mrs Peel in the Brit 1960's tv series, The Avengers, where PC played the very dashing Paul Beresford, a smooth operator, pushing all the buttons as romantic interest for Rigg's all action Mrs Peel and a finger on the button of death that commanded his deadly Cybernaut!







DIANA RIGG'S CAREER also features the splendid 'Theatre of Blood' with Vincent Price. She also worked with Christopher Lee in the Avengers episode 'Never, Never Say Die' in 1967. Also was the only woman to marry James Bond in On Her Majesties Secret Service.


CURRENTLY starring in the international hit tv series, Game of Thrones, Rigg is in no hurry to retire, and I think like Mrs Peel, she'll be 'socking it to us' for a while yet Happy Birthday Diana Rigg, born today in 1938.

FIRST BOND GIRL AND HAMMER FILM ACTRESS EUNICE GAYSON DIES AGED 90


VERY SAD NEWS released today, about the passing of wonderful actress and lady... Eunice Gayson. I am sure many of you will be aware of her connection to Hammer films and her playing of Margaret in Cushing's second Frankenstein film, The Revenge of Frankenstein in 1958. She not only was the FIRST official Bond girl, starring as Sylvia Trench in Dr No and From Russia With Love. Eunice also had quite the stage and theatre and TV career appearing in ITV's The Avengers and she played Frau Schrader (The Baroness) in the London production of The Sound Of Music at the Palace Theatre, actually singing two songs which were cut from the movie version of the story.





NEWS OF HER SAD passing has hit newspapers, TV and radio around the world. As her official Twitter account states this morning... she was an amazing lady who left a lasting impression on everyone she met. She will be very much missed . . . Eunice Gayson 17th March 1928 - June 8th 2018.

REMEMBERED TODAY : SIR CHRISTOPHER LEE JUNE 7TH 2015


SIR CHRISTOPHER LEE remembered today. Three years on . . . It's still a little strange how there still isn't an official CHRISTOPHER LEE fan site or even facebook page on the net. Before his passing, there was an official site, that had slowed down, to then a week after Lee's death, was closed to any updates and carried a banner of, being remodeled soon to reopepost.
