@adrianpaul1 My young friend who was with me that day kicked himself afterwards. He suddenly realised where he knew you from. He has The Colbys on dvd. Missed opportunity and he hasn’t forgotten it since. 💋
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Have ridden in a few projects. Exhilarating. Take some lessons! Worth it! Like driving, useful skill to have. Actors have to list their skills for roles/auditions.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Filming is different to theatre. You can go again if you don’t get it right. Theatre is more engaging/must get it right every time. Nervous before stage appearances/sitcoms with audience. Film and soaps, different pressures.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy First movie. Remain the youngest ever member of the National Youth Theatre. Parents were actors, so wasn’t an alien world. Modelled too, so was comfortable in front of a camera. Came to be known as “Face of the 80s” because of acclaimed photographer David Bailey.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Then he’s very sensible in buying all his props and costumes. He has a lot of stuff from Superman as he has another actress friend who was in those too. He’s a good friend to have. We are the lucky ones. His enthusiasm for our work reminds us of why we do what we do.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Oh wait!!!! They got the fire mares! They’ll be around somewhere. I was lucky to ride them. Clydesdales. That breed hadn’t been ridden in centuries. That was quite a moment, but no footage of me on them made final cut.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy I haven’t seen everything, but he’s got lobby cards, autographs, press packs, the score, the dvd, the blu, posters - including one that is a panel (?) poster - it’s the size of a door. Lifesize Lyssa. It’s very rare. And valuable, apparently. I didn’t keep a thing. Silly me.
@ChezLysette @WillWriterEast @adrianpaul1@Showmasters It does. I truly hope some of the cons can get behind it.
I hope this is ok to post, but this is the scene from my earlier tweet.
This scene is perfection!
@Get_Out_Gurl @WillWriterEast @adrianpaul1@Showmasters Oh YES!!!! The wire work. It was so uncomfortable. I remember that, more than the dialogue. But now I know what you’re referring to. I’m sure I had trouble with this dress and the harness and the wind machine.
#DarkShadows - #DanCurtis made such an impact on my career. Because of this, he gave me #TrilogyOfTerror - an extraordinary man. Larger than life. I’m ever so grateful to him. Much missed.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Yes, my friend tells me off for not taking it seriously. He’s a Krull lover. And I’m a bit of a giggler. Make sure you listen to it.
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Well, they lost the horses on the way. Ergo fainted and where did they go? They didn’t lose them in the swamp. That would have been The Neverending Story all over again. Except, we came along first..😄
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy I also mentioned about the walking at the end on another tweet… as far as I know, Colwyn and Lyssa might still be walking!!! 😄
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy Wow, then you really did like it!!! 😄😄😄
Maybe we could. If not, then I did record a commentary on the DVD (also on Blu-ray) which you can listen to - 20 years ago, mind. But is also filled with anecdotes from Ken Marshall and Peter Yates, if that helps!
@RealDrVenkman@DVD_Daddy I was hoping you’d notice that I left the sign-off quote of Ynyr for you on another tweet! Hope you liked the film. And thank you. As popular movie Princesses go, I’m often ranked in the top few, with Princess Leia as top - which is highly flattering to be in such company.
