    Peter Cushing was a true gentleman, who suffered so long alone after the death of his beloved wife.

      In the film Dracula A.D. 1972, he was originally casted as the father of the female lead. After the death of his beloved wife Helen in 1971, he aged so visibly that the script was hastily rewritten to make him her grandfather instead.

    Carrie Fisher said she hated saying " your foul stench" in episode 4 because he smelled like lavender and linen : so lovely.

      The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: REPENT YE, AND BELIEVE THE GOSPEL.
      THE GOSPEL (which means the Good News) is the news that God Almighty, the Creator came in the flesh as Jesus Christ to take away the sin of the world. He gave up his own life to save ours. His sacrifice on the cross paid the price for our redemption with his own blood. On the third day he rose from dead and offers the gift of salvation and forgiveness to those that repent and trust in him.
      John 1:1,14 KJV
      In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and THE WORD WAS GOD. [14] And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, and dwelt among us,
      Isaiah 9:6 KJV
      For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty GOD, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
      John 1:10 KJV
      He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and THE WORLD KNEW HIM NOT.
      John 20:28-29 KJV
      And Thomas answered and said unto him, MY LORD AND MY GOD. [29] Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.
      Are you saved friend? If you died tonight will you go to heaven or hell?
      Acts 16:30-31 KJV
      ...what must I do to be saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.
      Luke 24:47 KJV
      And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.
      Acts 4:12 KJV
      Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.

    Mr. Cushing was so much different than the roles he played as Von Frankenstein. He was a warm, kind-hearted soul that suffered tremendously due to his poor wife was taken from him. I feel a sense of true love coming from this great actor. He’s one of my favorites.

      He was only 60 in this interview.
      "The effects of his wife's death proved to be as much physical as mental. For his role in Dracula A.D. 1972, Cushing (who was 58) had originally been cast as the father of Stephanie Beacham's character, but had aged so visibly and lost so much weight that the script was hastily rewritten to make him her grandfather: it was done again in the last Dracula film from Hammer, The Satanic Rites of Dracula."

      The united kingdom without any doubt still produces remarkable actors and actresses, some of the best of the world. But, true. That era was astonishing. And it's people, so charismatic, so talented and mesmerizing.

    What a beautiful voice and impeccable pronunciation! As a foreigner who is fairly fluent in English and who has lived in the UK and Australia for 10 years, I must say that people who speak English so beautifully are becoming an endangered species. By the way, I hate that stupid and meaningless expression known as "Received pronunciation" which is so fashionable nowadays. Received? From who? idiots! Just call it for what it is: Public School English because that is where it was born. Most well-educated and decent Englishmen spoke like that until the abominable 1960s. Nowadays, the average Englishman speaks like a lout.

      You would never think, listening to him, that he came from a middle-class background and initially got refused at theatre schools because he sounded too gauche and cockney-adjacent. Learning to speak that elegantly was a long, hard-fought battle for him, but the result is amazing.
