Hello from Italy! we wait RA in italy

Hello, Our daughter Marie gave me the DVD "North South". I just want to say you that I like it very much. I looked at this DVD in English. It is a good exercise for me to improve my English. Yes, indee, I am Belgian (I speak French) and I have just found your name as actor. Thank you for your good interpretation in this film. In Belgium there were also "métiers à tisser" in Verviers (my birthtown) and I am lacemaker. So, I am very interested in the work of cotton and "lin". "Bravo" and see you soon...

Visiting to check on your choice for today's photograph and also the latest news which has become a daily habit for me. Your site is so reliable and well informed. Many thanks to all.

Thank you for visiting Gwen.

Today, May 5, Cinco de Mayo, is my birthday. Hoped to have my name on today's picture of the day of RA. Perhaps next year. I live in Oklahoma and I am looking forward to Black Sky.

You didn't send me an email Beth so how could I know that it was your birthday?

I hope you had a nice day.

Ali, I love, love the picture of today ! I have it on my laptop also :).

I really like all the Sydney pictures, it's been a good few days for news!

Thanks,Ali! What a riot that we thought of the same question! I attribute that to "great minds think alike!" Many thx for the amazing coverage of the Sydney visit. I see that Popcorn Taxi said that RA was "a thoughtful & generous guest". The Orpheum Theatre looked packed out ,standing room only, which is a credit to RA of course. I must say thanks to Angie(fedora lady ) for posting the transcript of the session so everyone could have a read. And also thx to Groover Green for taking the notes in the Theatre.Great job, ladies! You guys are amazing. I see in a Sydney interview that RA commented on a project involving an "incredibly charming book" which may come to fruition. we have to wait and see! Thx again Ali, what a lovely response we got to the Tolkien question! (You might need a holiday after all this work on the site!) Island Girl

Hello from Vancouver Canada :) I just wanted to say a big thank you for having this site. It has brightened my day many times. I love the `picture of the day`of Richard. Especially the ones of him as Sir Guy ;) take care and keep up the great work!! Sarah

It's about time we had another pic of Sir Guy I think...watch this space.

Thanks Sarah

When will we get a recording or transcript of the Popcorn Taxi interview in Sydney?? I sent in questions to Popcorn Taxi and I can't wait to see if RA was asked any of them. In particular I asked if Richard could meet J.R. Tolkien today, face to face ,what question would he have for him concerning Thorin? Can't wait to hear if my question made it. I also asked about the blue glow of Glamdring and Orchrist and whether the fans might see this in the next film. The blue glow was not seen in the first movie, to the disappointment of many fans.

Hi Island Girl

That question was answered, in fact I asked the very same question to Alice Tynan a few days ago as you'll see if you read the news today.

Popcorn Taxi have said they will be a video and it will be out soon.

I just discovered North & South 4 months ago. I love period dramas. I have to say this is the most informative site, for an actor that I’ve come across. You do a great job keeping us up to date on RA. Love the “pics of the day”. Keep up the great work

Thank you very much, that's very kind.
