After seeing the advert, it looks like the Nemesis Creature just put John Dalton on the ride and he is now stuck where Percy is somewhere in forbidden valley….
That was great! Such a nice bloke!! Kinda wish there was a portrait of John in the nemesis shop! Ya know one of those side on "power" poses with a plaque underneath? Woulda been amazing 🤣
What a really decent and genuine guy Richard is! A truly humble guy who played the roll of John, absolutely amazingly. A very talented actor and was awesome hearing how much of a connection he has with Alton Towers.
What a great unexpected interview line, "What would he have been up to if Nemesis hadn't torn him a new one?" Brilliant idea for an interview, and what a legendary role for Richard to have played.
The cast of characters built up at Alton Towers over the years really is something else. The idea of a wider universe and crossing into longer narratives like a tv show is a unique and interesting concept
Worth saying in classic horror movie trope, if we don’t see the body he’s not dead. I could easily see him returning, perhaps as a hero this time as we saw a new “villain” at the weekend, working to free nemesis from phalanx control. I could see a great reveal at fireworks 24
Enjoy my chat with Richard AKA Mr Phalanx Man who reveals his official character fate exclusively on Lift Hills and Thrills!
Richard has earned himself a special place in Alton Towers folklore 👏
Agreed
What a fantastic bloke Richard is. John Dalton joins Doctor Kelman (Gerry Cannell) as one of the great characters from Towers marketing lore.
❤️
This guy seems genuinly nice, great to have him on an episode of Coaster Conversations!!!!
🤘 agreed, lovely chap
Had the chance to say hello to Richard at the Sub Terra opening.
Top bloke and great actor, brilliant interview 👏
Cheers mate!
Another great interview. Renny is just as iconic for Oblivion as Richard is now for Phalanx.
Agreed
What a great guy he did a fantastic job as John Dalton aka Phalanx Man I hope there'll be a opportunity for him to return such a fascinating interview
haha cheers Rob

He's absolutely dead... Percy however... was the more family friendly TV version haha
Fantastic to get Richard on, what a legend.
Agreed

Thank you!
What a lovely bloke.
Agreed
The Real GOAT!

Phalanx man knowing the lord of darkness sounds like something that sounds like it would’ve happened in AT lore
😂
Hi There, a great Video and a decent interview, great to hear his thoughts on playing such a crucial role. Cheers Peter :)
Cheers Peter

This is brilliant! Thanks for doing this
My pleasure, thank you for watching
What a geezer

Brilliant! 👏
Thanks Katie!
If Merlin and StudioCanal work together to make a movie based off of the Story of Nemesis, they should cast Mr Hand in the film.
Agreed haha nice name drop for SC there! Aha
RIP mr phalanx man but great interview!!
RIP Mr Phalanx Man
Phew... I thought he was a goner! Hope Percy is ok, too? #justiceforpercy
Back to do this interview then straight back to the afterlife
Seems like a nice guy. Awesome to be a large part of the parks lore. Great interview thanks!
No worries!
Brillaint interview Sean, what a ledge of a guy Mr Hand is! Hope we are going to see you chatting to Percy soon😂

It’s what the people want to see! Aha
@LiftHillsandThrills it really is , I'm glad you did it , your so good at this
This is awesome!!! The nemesis man will go down in history ah
❤️
Get him back as the twin of Mr phalanx, he could start off at thorpe parks nemesis and then receive a call regarding his brother 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Joey Tribbiani vibes from Days of our Lives there 😂
@@LiftHillsandThrills I had to Google that reference but I remember the Chris rock movie about his twin brother......Bad company I think it was called
@@RALLYxREP That's a cracking film!
Great interview mate, really interesting questions! Funny, me and Richard have the same last name, maybe I am a descendent of Mr Phalanx man 🤷♂️
Maybe you are! You can continue his work!
Phalanx Man Vs Nemesis on the rides 30th tomorrow
Phalanx Man REBORN
It would be amazing if you could interview imogen turner aka emily alton one day
That would be a cool interview 😊
Come on you rams!!!!
Sorry, not even a minute into the video and I'm commenting lol!

You need to hunt down Renny for an oblivion interview!
I’m still working on April’s guest… at this rate I may need to travel to another country to get it 😂

@@LiftHillsandThrills OOOOOOH BABY!!!!! THIS IS REBIRTHIBG MY NEMESISES!!!!! :D
Wait what?!?! Could’ve swore this guy got eaten by Nemy???
He got spat out so he could have a chat with me
@@LiftHillsandThrills did he have an allocated timeslot to be re-eaten by Nemy after you finished your interview?
@@TheOfficialSmudgy I had him back before tea time
