Anyone see Paul Darrow on Pointless Celebrities tonight?
Spotted- was fantastic to see him again! Agreed on all points. Marvellous presence, and that unforgettable voice.
And you've pleased me greatly to say that he's not a double amputee. Unsure as to what he's suffering from, but he's as sure as hell not letting it get him down.
Blake's 7 had a potency and reach down all these decades that could easily have either maintained an ongoing mainstream output, or be rekindled now. And Paul Darrow could be recast back into role, next week, with my vote and that of many other last-century fans.
Villa was also good to see again- but less powerfully-so.
I love the way in which "Pointless" allows Osman and Armstrong to gently extract such meaningful quotes and content from its victims. The 'Seven' insights and quips were solid gold. Nearly made my day....and I think you've completed it, @GNC , with your noting/commenting upon it. Thanks!!
