 I don't recall which was which name, but I do recall the fright
 wig guy. Saw him at a Dr Who convention in Chicago once.

 He used to do what he called "Venusian Aikido" as his method of
 self defense. I studied some Aikido in the service, when I was
 stationed in Hawaii. What he did was real. Or, was the motions
 of the real thing. Looked real to me. Elementary, but real.

 Met the one who played Leyla. She told of a really bad movie she
 was in. Vampire Circus. I have a copy. If I ever meet her again
 I'll threaten to let the rest of the convention see it if she
 doesn't pay me off.

 BTW, I also saw a BBC special on Shakespear. She was in the
 front row.

 Also, in an old series on the history of technology, the fellow
 who played Zaphod Beeblebrox did a Shakespearing recitation from
 one of the Richards. They were going into the technology of war.

 We few, we band of brothers....
