Janel says “Had a friend in it and said it was a pleasure to work with REG (he also signed a copy of With Nails for me, so of course I know he’s spiffing. This is my first posting – I look forward to further enjoyable info sharing.”

REG appeared in two sketches. The first a take-off of Jane Austen “role” – a batman to Alan Rickman’s General at Waterloo.
The second was a take-off of ER set in WI (that’s the Woman’s Institute) complete with American accents. REG played Godfrey – a man whose rhubarb preserve fails to make the grade and is forced to gatecrashing the jumble sale topless, donning a large hat with lipstick smeared around mouth and brandishing knitting needles! Has to be seen to be fully appreciated!
Note: For HEAPS of pics from Richard’s appearance on Victoria Woods With All The Trimmings, just navigate your way to the Gallery section of the Temple website.

Did anyone happen to catch glimpses of REG last night at the above awards? It was shown live on ITV and apparently according to Sarah and others he looked scrummy!
Kemma poses an interesting question. I’ll let her speak in her own words:
I know we all discussed this in some length a while back…How the brits are seemingly portrayed as the baddies in recent Hollywood films, but.. Yesterday I was digging through some old magazines I had (Looking for Jenny Seagrove info, which is futile I’ve noticed) and came across an article written in July of 1993. It’s an article written in Empire magazine about that very topic. Not only was Reg mentioned (along with 15 or so other actors and films) but they included a Hudson Hawk pic as well.
At any rate, for those of you who collect articles etc, (or are simply a pack rat like myself and can’t bear to throw anything away, ) it’s issue number 49, July 1993, pg 24.
The reason they wrote it, btw, was the fact that John Lithgow was the bad guy in Cliffhanger…and he used a British accent.
Thanks for that, Kemma.
