I can remember soiling myself watching him do his stuff back in the day. Also to Hammer House of Horrors on a Saturday night as a child in the 80's.
I watched some of them again a while back. Some still made the hair stand up on the back of my neck.

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.

I used to watch the old Hammer movies with my dad when my mum was on nights. Used to scare the crap out of me as a kid :-D
My kids of course know him as Count Dooku and Saruman, and of course the man with the golden gun.
Looking at his profile on IMDB, I never realised just how many films I've actually seen him in! And I've only seen about half of the ones he did.
