Just a quick note to say that the PAL/DVD release of Serpent’s Kiss is coming out on December 5. The video is very pricey, but we’re still in the stages of finding out if the North American company with the rights is going to do with it. The company is Trimark (owned by Lion’s Gate.)

Also click here for a pic of James Fitzmaurice and his cousin(?) He looks positively diabolical.

Ready for another “Jack” still from Pat? If so then just click here.

Pimps to be shown Downunder.

I was happy to be informed by Maureen that The Guide (Sydney Morning Herald’s weekly TV guide) says that “Richard E. Grant returns as the 18th-century James Bond in a second series of The Scarlet Pimpernel” as part of the ABC’s offerings for next year. WOOHOO! A year late, but nice to know us colonials finally get to see the second pimp in 2001.

Jenny (and a few others) spotted Blenheim Palace-which doubled as Percy’s house-being featured on a British TV program called “Great Estates” recently. It was where they filmed the last scenes of the Scarlet Pimpernel Episode Six. There were several lovely shots of Richard: yawning his head off, sitting quietly in contemplative mood, waiting, smiling and signing autographs. She managed to snap some screen shots for us, which you can see here. Thanks Jen (and hubby)!
