Exactly.

Crikey, he's been in tv since 1955
Not bad going still acting at nearly 80

Goodness me. What next, Shirley MacLaine on Downton?

Lots of famous actors have appeared on Corrie. I think they look upon it as an honour. It can't be for the money.

Yes. Serious.

I take it you don't approve?

I used to love the film as a kid, watched it until the VHS tape wore out lol, I still think the Stellar Converter was nearly a good a weapon as the Death Star.

[Pesty]

Have you watched it recently?

I imagine it will have aged very, very badly.

it was on all the time when i was a kid and I hated it then.

those fking stupid telepathic things who would not do vilolence. what was their point? oh yeah to die and let the others know what it was like.

fk sake just remembered couldnt they get really hot or something? yeah cool when are they going to pull a blaster and start kicking arse?

i was 7 when star wars came out battle beyond the stars never stood a chance. Although i do remember there being a pretty girl in it.

one of the first films where i remember rooting for the bad guys
