Brian Blessed is very much alive

[V8Granite]

I went to see him last night and he was awesome. He did his shouting, swearing, some deep meaningful stuff and also some small pieces of acting. I think I see him more as an adventurer than an actor but he is obviously great at both.

A personal hero of mine and even better in the flesh. He is an old bugger at 82 but has more life in him than most half his age. Louder than you expect too

Dave!

Jesus, I already expect him to be loud

[Richard]

Jesus, I already expect him to be loud

Ha

Louder than you expect?! That's brilliant! I had no idea that would be possible!

[GG.]

Do they give out ear defenders at the door?

There was a wonderful Adam and Joe skit on their 6music show about living in a flat between Simon Callow and Brian Blessed. Not sure if this is what I was thinking of, but it's bound to be worth a listen anyway: https://www.bbc.co.uk/blogs/adamandjoe/ ... llow.shtml

Zero fvcks given and has liven life to the full. Legend.

[JLv3.0]

Aye he's a fucking hero. Wonderful, wonderful man. If I'd had had the chance to meet him, I'd have leapt at it. His presenting of HIGNFY - I think most of the views on YT are me, especially the bit about taking a crap up Mount Everest

My mate works with him occasionally and confirms he is a legend. Which is saying something considering some of the other 'stars' he works with.

He said this to a member of the audience.

Quiet voice.

“Was that your husband? He needed a piss didn’t he?, does he have a big cock?”

Loud voice

“It’s not as big as mine the bastard”

Quiet voice

“I’m so humble, it’s a gift”

Dave!
