PETER CUSHING CHRISTOPHER LEE: WE LIKE MAKING NEW BANNERS!


A new banner for a few days at the UK PETER CUSHING APPRECIATION SOCIETY FACEBOOK PAGE! We were going to try and make it a little more patriotic with the UK's Queen's Jubilee Celebrations going on this weekend, but that would have meant adding red to the blue and white, as in the old Union Jack flag. But, we thought there enough 'red' spilt around here on a daily basis as it is!
