David Prowse is ill...

I think I've mentioned it before but cus of his falmer-palmer accent, some people on set were calling him Darth-Farmer(!) when he was saying his lines.

I've amused myself many-a-time by repeating my favourite Vader lines in a Cornish accent. Honest, try it!

"What is thy bidding my maaaaaaaaarster" 😄

Aaannnnnnnnnnnddddddd, I've got a brand new combine harvester, and I'll give you the key. 😂

What's farmer-palmer ? I mean, what's the palmer part ?

Darth Hick, eh? Yes, what is with the palmer?

It's true, and it also made it easier for the other characters to interact with him in the scenes.

I don't think it actually means anything, it's just a name that rhymes.

Falmer Palmer was a character from VIZ magazine some years ago. Most amusing - son & daughter get married - shoots ramblers dogs - "GET ORRF MY LAAAAAND" etc in every monthly strip 🤣

Top notch, if you've ever seen it, although BIG VERN was always my fave, he was dieing at the end of every episode way before Kenny even thought of it.

Oh yeah, now I remember. What about the Fat Slags, I think I knew them... 😂

Tee-hee, haven't we all been there after one too many shandy's! 😂

Actually, I've led far too a sheltered life for that... 😮

Too sheltered for shandy's? Where have you been? Underground in a hole?

Something like that...

Anyone got any news on DP? I can't find anything out.

I haven't browsed any other SW sites today.

Well he pulled out of Star Wars Weekends cos he was ill, but was supposed to be getting better.

Then, about 10 days ago, I read that he had taken a turn for the worse again and the doctors still had no idea why.
