A producer told me once she has to warn young crewmembers to avoid being alone with Aykroyd. "Not because he's a creep, he's a gentleman. But if you let him strike up a conversation the next thing we know all the PAs will be huddled in his dressing room learning how humans evolved from dolphins."

Robert Redford playing a gentle incarnation of death, coming for a frightened old woman in The Twilight Zone episode "Nothing in the Dark" (1962). An extraordinary performance then, terribly bittersweet today
My ongoing obsession with Crown Court continues with āThe Hen Partyā. A lovely blustery turn from Nigel Stock as Judge Wiffen and Wanda Ventham imperious, sneering from the dock. Marvellous stuff.
Quite possibly. Probably parked it there before starting a 25yr stretch in the Scrubs.
RIP Robert Redford Brilliant and ridiculously prescient scene between Redford and Kingsleyās 60s activists whoāve both taken very different paths since in the wonderful Sneakers: youtu.be/viJbCl7VF6o?...

Guy Siner moving to the US means all sorts of unexpected appearances, especially David Lynchās āLost Highwayā. He must be the only person with a credit in both āSeinfeldā and āChucklevisionā.
