    Interesting that he said Bruce never hit him during the fight scenes and pretty much treated the stuntmen very well. Much different than what QT says. All first hand accounts have the interviewee saying that Bruce treated the stuntmen well.

    Thanks very much for sharing and the unique set of interviews. Bruce Lee (李小龙) the LEGEND. Very gracious of John Derbyshire to share his story. He is a proper gentle English man.
    I have always hoped someone will interview laypersons, ordinary folks, unknown peoples who came across Bruce Lee and what you do Charles, is kind of closest to that. Although I certainly appreciate them, but I feel there is mostly celebrities, other well known people talking about Bruce Lee but any person alive who definitely met Bruce Lee in any capacity is most worthy of being interviewed and personally at this time, kind of prefer this over yet another celebrity talking about Bruce Lee (not that I don't appreciate any info about Bruce Lee especially If authentic and true)
    Thanks again Sir! Keep up the good work.

      Bruce also had much more experience filming fight scenes by the time he filmed Return. He was actually a bit rough around the edges when filming for The Green Hornet. So, there may be some truth to Bruce making physical contact with stuntmen when he started back then. But I found Quentin took liberties to exaggerate Bruce's story in order to hype his own movie.

    I smashed the like button for this one. However just one small request Charles, can you let your important guess finish talking before interrupting them when they're in mid flow. I know you're probably just as excited as we all are and you interrupt them because of your enthusiasm to ask questions but I can't help to feel I've missed out on something when they don't finish what they started, who knows, they might just ramble on and tell us something even more interesting. Other than that, everything else was just fabulous 👍

The way he is very welcoming,and keeping newcomer's in relaxed state,in his very charming way. That alone,is a great talent of gentlemanly conduct.It lets you know,the legacy of Bruce is going to be around for good. Thanks again Charles. All the best from Bonnie Scotland.

    Well yet again that did not disappoint. So interesting to hear what Bruce was like on a personal level. Everyone said he ran a very relaxed set as can be seen in the Game of Death photos and clips as well. I particularly liked the advice not to move forward will he was kicking, as well as the motivational speech of pissing in his beer.🍺Special mention to Edgar for his superb lobby card design. Final mention on us getting everything late. Kung Fu didn't come out here in the UK until 1974 and also Peter said he watched Longstreet. But only the pilot episode without Bruce and with another actor playing Duke was shown in my area. So we really had to catch up. Luckily KFM more than made up for it.😁👍🐉

He runs a karate school in Hong Kong. He also starred in many Kung Fu films from back in the day.

I always wondered about Bruce Lee's battle cries, because as was mentioned in the interview, movies were dubbed in Hong Kong back in those days. It was great to finally find out that the battle cries were really his! This was a really awesome episode!

    John Derbyshire was right. Bruce Lee's passing was not that big of a story. He died before the release of Enter the Dragon and Return of the Dragon wouldn't be released for another year. So only a small group of people, market wise, saw his first two films in the U.S. He was barely known here. I found out about his passing in a small newspaper article that mentioned his death. I don't think it even made TV news at all.

    • @TheBudgie29

      Bruce's death was mentioned on the BBC Six O'Clock News at the time. I remember watching it with my Dad, and he TV newscaster said Kung Fu star Bruce Lee was found dead in his house. They didn't know at the time it was actually the actress Betty Ting Pei's flat he was found in. It was a Mega Shock at the time.. Barry Norman also mentioned Bruce's death on his Film 73 show. Dickie Davies mentioned it on ITV and later showed a clip from Game of Death where Bruce fought the Hapkido Master.
