Well, Doctor Who does pop up a fair bit in the interview - but it's a legitimate part of the Golden Voyage of Sinbad story, so that's fine.



The interview is an absolute joy, as you might expect - 50% on-topic reminiscences (he ranges over the bulk of his pre-Doctor Who career, including Rasputin) and 50% rambling nonsense, but he's so ridiculously entertaining that the editor was asked to give it the lightest possible trimming to preserve as much as he decently could without actually serving up unvarnished raw footage.

Or that episode of 'Black Adder' he was in!

I don't think he mentions either of those at all!

Any mention of Pasolini's Canterbury Tales?

Not that I recall, but that's just about the only pre-Golden Voyage omission. There's a hilarious story about starring in a disastrous production of Macbeth that appears to have anticipated Peter O'Toole's comedy turn by nearly a decade.

Amazon appear to have leaked Powerhouse's August and September slates:

21st August:
The Deadly Affair
The Reckoning
The National Health
A Day in the Life of Joe Egg

25th September:
See No Evil
The Ray Harryhausen Collection 1955-1960
The Chase

the Harryhausen Collection 55-60 is a strange one? The 3 Worlds of Gulliver doesn't really sit well with the 3 B&W sci-fis.

Wow, that's quite the screw up from Amazon. :doh:
