I'm sure I'll be visiting Marlow quite a bit for shopping... RE: Peter Firth #3 - pookster - 11-11-2011 08:26 PM Bored recently so I googled the wonderful PF and I found this TV show featuring PF on youtube from 1998 - Dead Man's Gun - The Ripper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMKLpsDXVv0&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8CqE1ry0pY&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r0SM773boOU&feature=related Enjoy. RE: Peter Firth #3 - picard1109 - 11-11-2011 09:27 PM Excellent - well done on finding that, Pookster!! I have a little programme that downloads Youtube videos and converts them into .avi files, so I can watch them on my DVD player. PM me if you want the link to download the (free) programme. And here's the link to PF's 'Fitz' (US version of 'Cracker') episode: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FL03hPDIbW0&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4fHqj2dgJog&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pj7XOSlK70&feature=related RE: Peter Firth #3 - Tea Lady - 14-11-2011 08:37 PM If you haven't already, you can vote for Peter (and Nicola) on the Cultbox website. Best actor 2011. I'm not sure if I am allowed to post the link here but it's pretty easy to find on google search anyway.

Thanks, picard for that truly disturbing but incredible work by PF. He might just be one of the most courageous actors around. How he manages to make a character like that even remotely sympathetic, I will never know. He certainly has an eye for them. But the best baddies are the ones who have a reasonably plausible motivation, even if it is just barely reasonable. Ironically, as much as I really like Robert Pastorelli as an actor, I missed this b/c I preferred the UK version of Cracker. RE: Peter Firth #3 - beatrice4ruth - 15-11-2011 05:47 PM I am so happy that Peter Firth accepted the role of Harry. Over the years his great acting skills were scattered in various TV shows and movies. Spooks allowed us to discover a fabulous actor with an incredible range of emotions. I too find him very courageous in the choice of the characters he plays. Soldier, Soldier, is also disturbing, but not as much as Fitz. I won't even mention the two other unsettling roles he is famous for. |
