- Christopher Lee (27 May 1922 - 7 June 2015)
Thanks to the Belgian television archive!
Christopher Lee first enlisted in the Royal Air Force in 1940, where he worked as an intelligence officer specializing in decoding German ciphers. He was then posted to North Africa where he was based with the precursor of the SAS, the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG). While leapfrogging from Egypt across Tobruk to Benghazi, Lee moved behind enemy lines from base to base sabotaging Luftwaffe planes and airfields along the way. After the Axis surrender in 1943, Lee was seconded to the Army during an officer swap scheme, where he officiated the Gurkhas of the 8th Indian Infantry Division during The Battle of Monte Cassino. After working with the LRDG, Lee was assigned to the Special Operations Executive, conducting espionage, sabotage and reconnaissance in occupied Europe against the Axis powers. For the final few months of his service, Lee, fluent in several languages including French and German, was tasked with tracking down Nazi war criminals alongside the Central Registry of War Criminals and Security Suspects. Of his time within the organisation, Lee said "We were given dossiers of what they'd done and told to find them, interrogate them as much as we could and hand them over to the appropriate authority." Lee then retired from the RAF in 1946 with the rank of Flight Lieutenant. Although his service records remain classified and Lee himself was reluctant to discuss anything about his service, after his retirement he'd been individually decorated for battlefield bravery by the Czech, Yugoslav, British, and Polish governments. He was also on personal terms with Josip Broz Tito, presumably after their mutual involvement with the Partisan resistence movement (widely cited as the most effective resistance movement in occupied Europe). - Фільми й анімація

I just love how he perfectly pronounced the different countrys' special forces' names. There was so much respect and intelligence in this man.
David Weidtke The highest honour I can say about him is that Sir Christopher Lee is a gentleman. The highest honour I could give to any man.
No one gives a shit.
Sir Christopher could actually speak a lot of different languages
@ you must do if you keep commenting on this thread......
He could speak all this languages.. David, mir scheint das du Deutscher bist, deswegen hier ein kleines Beispiel seiner Sprachkenntnisse: ua-cam.com/video/8Zd9jA1WNCc/v-deo.html
Glad he got his knighthood; there’s a man who deserved it.
Unlike the shitty Royals who bestowed it
Its a knighthood who cares?
He was more royal than the people giving out the titles anyway.
where is he now??? in lake of fire ,think about it now!!!!
Slaying huns !
My favorite Christopher Lee story is from Peter Jackson who told him to scream when he was stabbed in the back in the Two Towers to which Lee scoffed and explained to him he knew from personal experiece that a person doesn't make any such sound when they are killed that way.
You mean that: ua-cam.com/video/5TQARRckm6U/v-deo.html
Nobody will ever know the true story about Christopher Lee, he kept his mouth shut.
@@mark12strang58 Well. He kina close a lot of mouths in his career with the SAS as well >_>
@@CrniWuk not nearly as funny as his 1st death scene in i think it was the film Penny & The Pownal case From (1948) if i'm thinking of the right film, i have actually seen that one and it's a decent little film. anyways, for those who don't know the story, during filming the death scene Lee was directed to do it, and Lee having been in WW2 did it like he saw all the time, and after the 2nd time i think? or whatever the number was the director goes Cut, what the hell are you doing? he Lee goes this is how men die & he's told in real life yes but this isn't real life it's the movie business and they did one more take that the director just yelled cut print and though he wasn't satisfied with it, they could not afford to do another one, see the film was a low budget B film.
and he says in his book apparently the men i saw die did it all wrong when they died as they had no experience. so i had to learn how to die on screen and it took him awhile to get it right apparently. that story just makes me laugh
I saw that video!
Forget the Dos Equis guy. Christopher Lee was the most interesting man in the world.
Without question!
Like William Smith.
Greatest comment ever! And true!
Quite right, quite right.
Der
A remarkable man . He once said that a true gentleman never acknowledges himself as such . He also said that the greatest gentleman he ever met was a corporal in the British Army . If only all men were like Christopher Lee .
This reminds me of an Epitaph written by Rudyard Kipling We were together since the War began.He was my servant-and the better man.
He was a product of his era.Churchill was also racist.You have to judge them not by the standards of today but by the standards of their time zone.I'm sure that future historians will look back at our era with perceived superiority.
Much respect sir.
What was his rank?
@@libertyeven4u459 He was an officer , what rank I don't know
Then the world might be a better place... because everyone would be to respectfull and polite to fight each other (And they also would know that it would be fucking dangerous)
Sir Chrostopher Lee, the first Kingsman
Renaissance Nerd that would be dope if there was a Easter egg to him
The actor David Niven is the up there too.
Renaissance Nerd the Real Kingsman!
Yes
They should make a bloody film about him!
I know it's impossible for it to be sold, but his SAS identification must be worth a small fortune. Not only is it a WWII vestige, but the owner was a veteran who had a tremendous military career and movie career and he "always" kept it with him. If anything, it would be a piece worth showcasing in a museum.
"IT BELONGS IN A MUSEUM!"
Sorry, I just had Indiana Jones on the mind. But, yes, it should be put in a museum, it has a lot of historical significance.
considering his awesome life they could just make a museum about him tho sadly a lot of his time in the special forces is still classified
What if Christopher Lee was in Indiana Jones? Along with crazy Klaus Kinski...
*Francis Lafontaine. É. :* It would be wonderful for the identification to be protected and displayed in a museum ...but the emotional value to his family must come first. What i must mean to them...
He deserves an entire exhibit. I'd love to see that wall of SF insignias. The ides that he spent his life bringing all those together only for them to parceled and sold off and redistributed into the wind as it were, possibly to be lost for all time, makes me sick.
The more I find out about Christopher Lee the more fascinating he becomes...
And terrifying. Who knows what he's seen and done....glad he did it !
@@deadendfriends1975 I agree
One of the few awe inspiring actors ever.
The metal albums, the fact that he is on a Paul McCartney album cover
YEP! So many people are fangirls for actors, cuz of their character, not them!
I love him for who he is, as a person, and stories he told!
I know this will sound strange but I always thought that he would live forever. Still he is immortalized through his life's work. He was a very intelligent fascinating man. Rest in eternal peace Mr. Lee, and thank you for your great gifts to the world of cinema.
+no hassle
As long as we remember him, through film, and music, and interview, he will never truly die.
I thought the same thing...even though he was 93, it was still a shock when he died. Sir Lee was and IS the TRUE "Most Interesting Man in the World." He can never be forgotten.
Eyellgeteven Yeah, he was. I just got round to watching his classic film the WickerMan. I can't believe it took me so long, but it was worth it.
What a gentle man.
We expect the great ones to always be around us. Cheers.
He was a RAF intelligence officer during the Second World War, attached to the units he mentioned and temporarily to several others. His fluency in several languages put him in many of those positions.
Congratulations, you can recite basic facts. Your cookie is in the mail.
@@mikekemp9877 You are on the right track, but with a lot of muddle up notions. The LRP/LRDG preceded the LAF commando and the PPA ( and also the SAS). cheers
@@thehellyousay congratulations yours is the most purile infantile mean spirited of the year! troll away the response was for people who may not know the basic facts ! dont let it stop you leading so miserable a life that your only bpleasure is dissing people who are interested in the same thing! sadly we have things called friends and family not a lone saddo wracking his very small brain for a sardonic post that nobody liked! well done billynomates!
@@mikekemp9877 You are wrong when you allude to , and/or make statements such as this one, ".... popski was the first group to try offensive operations against the afrika corps and italians! ..." Research, and then study, the history. Pay especial attention to the details, all of the details.
@@ItsJustMorris sorry i was referring to his activities in 1940 didnt know that was after 1941! my bad of course you were there!
He is the most interesting man in the world.
Jaqen H'ghar was
American, Valar Morghulis.
@@Noctifern he still is... just because he's dead doesn't mean he's no longer interesting, or cannont be someone's most interesting person in the world. (I personally think you are simply confused as to how the English language works, so I am inclined to suggest that you refrain from correcting others until you have a better grasp of communication)
@George Washington I know? lol
@Lafe Denton Well who do you think would be more interesting?
He wasn't just an actor. He wasn't just a war hero. He was gentleman. The world is a slightly colder place without him.
"slightly". Seriously one of the greatest man that ever lived.
I agree with the sentiment, but I like to think that the world will forever be a better place thanks to having received Sir Christopher Lee's presence. He's been immortalized by all his works and will never be forgotten
:,(
You guys have to be absolute clueless people, he never once spoke about Hollywood's degenracy, and the fact that Nazis knew rich jews were degenerates that liked to fuck kids. You think you know wtf is going on? You know what GERMANY was trying to stop? Their control of the American government to traffic kids and do messed up shit. It's laughable how naive you are. The Nazis were trying to prevent that world from happening and now look at all the suffering that has been caused by Hollywood. You're fucked
Popski's Private Army, officially No. 1 Demolition Squadron, PPA, was a unit of British Special Forces set up in Cairo in October 1942 by Major Vladimir Peniakoff. Popski's Private Army was one of several raiding units formed in the Western Desert during the Second World War. The squadron also served in Italy, and was disbanded in September 1945.
No. 1 Demolition Squadron was formed specifically to attack Field-Marshal Rommel's fuel supplies, in support of General Montgomery’s offensive at El Alamein,at the suggestion of Lieutenant-Colonel John Hackett. The unit became operational on 10 December 1942 as an 8th Army Special Forces unit. After the Long Range Desert Group (LRDG) and the Special Air Service (SAS), PPA was the last and smallest of the three main irregular raiding, reconnaissance and intelligence units formed during the North African Campaign.
Thank you for the research.
You know your stuff, I'm reading a book about sas in north africa and have read one specifically about lrdg too, when I heard him say popskis army my ears pricked up lmao
The book "Private Army" by Peniakoff is a great read. In it he says that they were trying to come up with a name for the unit (No 1 Demolition Squadron was the provisional name) and when he couldn't pick one Hackett said "...find a name quick or we shall call you Popski's Private Army" and that was where the name came from. It was the smallest independent unit in the British army-23 all ranks at the beginning. In the introduction to the book he said "only to fools amongst men of my generation will the realization coma as a surprise that we liked war".
@@petermortimer6303 I will definitely look for it, know if i can download it anywhere? Not sure if I'll find it in my country
@@websters8665 It's available on Amazon. The title there is given as "Popski's Private Army" by Vladimir Peniakoff. There is another book on Amazon entitled "Fighting With Popski's Private Army" by Park Yunnie who was (I think) Popski's 2IC. Not as good as Popski's book but still a good read. I would recommend reading Popski's book first. When I read Yunnie's book I looked at Popski's to check some things that Yunnie said and I found that Yunnie seemed to get a few things wrong. Interestingly according to Yunnie's son, Don, Park Yunnie became a mercenary in the Congo in the 1960s and was executed there in 1961. The family do not know where his body is buried. He must have liked war.
He might've played villains on the big screen. But in real life he was truly an elegant gentleman.
He might've played villains in movies. But in real life he was a hero.
@@w.h648 One person's hero is another persons villain, would you call for example, a Iranian soldier a hero, for killing a British soldier?
@@yogistra NO.
What a gracious gentleman. Sadly he seems to be a dying breed.
He's dead.
Dead breed then.
@ what a shame you aren't.
@@Useaname Cry some more you brain damaged failure.
Seán O'Nilbud what’s ur issue with this guy? Go hate on someone else man this shit ain’t funny, I think he is such a nice man u seen like one of those kids I would love to smack, why this guy??? He did nothing to you
“This is the greatest treasure I’ve ever had” that man was a treasure
this is pretty much the real James Bond
Not a drunkard, druggie and chronic womanizer. So not a real Bond.
Not really; most of his military record he made up. Google it...
No, he didn't. Journalists exaggerated some of his war service, he rarely spoke about it.
Page-Hendryx no one man claims it to be unreal with no proof to actually prove it isn’t real.
@@Normalguy1690 During filming and afterwards adding sound effects there was this fabricated sound of a blade entering a human body and Sir Lee said:Thats not how it sounds. (true story)
He doesn't at any point say "thank you" for the gift yet you can tell how much it means to him and how he displays his gratefulness with a story and explanation of his passion towards it. Big respect to the interviewers as well for facilitating the gift.
qwertyajb he told him how wery grateful he was and how much this meant to him.
Thank you is kinda overused I think, which could be one of the reasons.
The patch was post war fake. He knew it as soon as he touch it.
@@crystalscool187 Diane was only formed in 1972 as a special ops police unit after the Munich hostage crisis so yeah it surely was a post war badge...
@@krisbrag87wich is the best way to thanks someone... What a gentleman
He was so lucky to receive this insignia. People have no idea how hard it is to get ahold of. Beautiful 😍
We often throw the phrase out a lot, but he was truly one of those people you could sit and listen to for hours on end.
We who live in the free world owe a debt to those like Mr. Lee and his compatriots that we can never fully pay. God rest their souls.
Couldn't have said it any better. Shame our governments don't think the same way!!!!
He's probably why the world is in the state that it is in.
Why would a card be valid for that long unless he was active duty
@@karimmoop9560 His " card " isn't necessarily valid, just proof of his service to his nation.
Christopher Lee was a true gentleman. A man any soldier would proudly follow into battle without hesitation.
If they surrender, they follow. If they don't, they are running away
Class. Suave. Debonair. Brave. Gentlemanly. Intelligent. Grateful.
Hotel Trivago
Chuck Norris has NOTHING on Christopher Lee!!
They were actually very good friends.
Well...
@@Useaname No joke? I didn't know that. Makes sense though.
@@bobfamilyproductions4 they worked together on a kung fu movie and remained friends after.
Who do you think taught Chuck everything he knew?
I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Lee while on my flight to Morocco several years ago. He was a very personalble and respectful dude. I enjoyed the brief yet memorable encounter with him.
He must be number 1 on the highscores of life right now.
WOW, Christopher Lee was a genuine Bad A$$ just like David Niven (Royal Commandos) if I remember correctly. Thank you so much for all the great movies and thank you for your service to your country and to the entire free world. Godspeed Mister Lee.
Hawkin's Dog that’s Sir Christopher to you
So many of our Hollywood heroes served with distinction in ww2.
@@seamusolunacy I know this is a cliche but we'll never get actors like this ever again.
Toxic masculinity at it's finest.....great man!
@@zentil267 Pray we don't need them. It won't be pleasant.
What a class act Christopher Lee was - I'm so glad he was able to receive this long searched for treasure to add to his collection. His delight and gratitude were obviously heartfelt - a great job by the TV researchers who tracked it down for him!
Can you believe he went on to live another 13 years! Not often you see such a charismatic and active 80 yr old. A true champion and role model! R.I.P.
he was one of the best actors in all of Hollywood History
TheAvengersRising Very true. Yet he never got an Oscar, unfortunately.
The fact that the vast majority of his work was in the UK notwithstanding
Tom Brearley-Smith The fact that there is a time where his kindness gets abused by the film industry.
Yes he is. He will be miss
@@jeffraber9110 Just because someone isnt as known.. Doesnt mean he isnt the best :) basically he is just really the real guy in a sense. Its why i really like him
This man makes me look forward to my 90s.
Just make sure you collect as many stories and enjoy as many experiences as you can before you reach them, then you can sit back like Sir Christopher and wow all the up and coming fuckers :P
God Rest your beautiful soul, Christopher.
This man is a war veteran and is truley someone who rightfully *deserves* to be held in the highest respect and honor one can give to another
Christopher Lee was a treasure.
I think you mean "a national treasure". 👍
Idle Onlooker no. I said exactly what I meant.
WAS DENIED GRANDFATHERS
I always felt he was by proxy, as I was the granddaughter he never knew..
He died before I could meet him and get that hug and kiss I WANTED!!!
QueenObscure he lives on in his movies though.
Sir Christopher Lee, was in the special forces...
I'm blown away away...and seriously humbled 🙏
What a guy my late Grandfather was a SOE Commando during WW2 , they all did an amazing job , the best generation is what there known as it’s a pity that a lot of them died so young and those that survived the war also died quite young my Grandfather was only 66 years old when he passed away. RIP to all of them .
I wish could have had at least 1 conversation with him no matter how small before he died. Imagine the story's he could tell. Rest in peace Christopher lee
what a calm , dignified persona he presented . Every word delivered precise and measured , and a very good human being , RIP Sir Lee and the world could do with a few more like you to teach us a thing or two
Pure class. Awesome guy. RIP
I didn’t believe some one could have so much history, live to Christopher’s age, and still be so active in something so demanding like acting. Truly remarkable man and he continues to be even after his passing.
A great man, brave, intelligent, an artisan a scholar, entertainer, he earned so many accomplishments.
They just do not make Humans like that these days. A little tear in my eye, RIP Sir.
When you just listen to his voice, Charles Dance voice is much like his.
A director once asked Christopher Lee for himto imagine what what it would feel like to stick a knife in the back of the enemy.. i want you to imagine the feel of the blade going in.
Christopher responded.. I dont need to imagine it... I've done it.
Was it peter Jackson? I think they were talking about that scene in the extended editions when Saruman gets stabbed.
yep everyone stayed away from Lee for a few week after that! lol
@@QUEENOBSCURE I dont think i would. I legit like the guy : D
I always loved watching Christopher Lee's films I had absolutely no idea he was an ex LRDG special forces soldier! Learn something new everyday! Shame we now give so much air time to lesser celebritiy types who've never done a days real work or service!
This will be a nice addition to my collection..
I've met dozens of people over the years who had the pleasure of working with this amazing man, and not one of them can remember any time he was other than courteous and a consummate professional. Over a seventy-year career, that's a record that truly will never be matched.
True - but he was a real 'sod' as Dracula! LOL Rip 'SIR' you are truly missed!
just blows my mind how fucking smart he was and not to mention how much of a badass he is
This man was a legend. And as a Froggy I can tell C.Lee's French prononciation is perfect.
One of my favourite facts of Christopher Lee was his Olympic gold medal in fencing. He really walked the walk.
I'm pretty sure the only Olympic Gold medal won by GB is by Gillian Sheen.
This gentleman is so fascinating! He speaks so elegantly...and fluently in five different languages!
Christopher Lee was a good man! He lived an amazing life. Rest in peace.
He needs a movie made about him but there's no Christopher Lee to portray him
Lee Pace has the height and right features. He'd need some makeup to get the young Chris' dark Italian looks right, but that's easy enough.
Charles Dance perhaps?
Just a suggestion... Charles Dance
Charles Dance. What a BRILLIANT, perfect suggestion!
Now someone needs to get the wheels rolling...
@@ostiariusalpha hahahahaha , as if lol
Just brilliant, incredible character, RIP Christopher Lee, a true Gentleman and a Scholar, Respect, J&HXx
The names Lee, Christopher Lee.
With Ian Fleming as "M"
I beleve in the making of the LOTR trilogy when Peter Jackson asked him to imagine what it's like to be stabbed with a knife (when Grima Wormtongue kills him) he replied to Peter Jackson "I don't needd to imagine." A total gentleman the like of which we shall never see again.
Harb Chan I saw a bit of footage where Lee was explaining to Jackson that a man being stabbed in the back inhaled without making much noise. It seemed that Lee had some experience being on the blunt end of a knife.
@@hiltonian_1260 Well he was part of things like the OSS during WWII, and attached to partisan/guerilla groups, and I think he always carried a card proving he was associated with the early formed SAS too. Amazing man. No wonder he knew what it was like when a man was stabbed in the back.
Yup: ua-cam.com/video/5TQARRckm6U/v-deo.html
@Donald Mackay Yikes. Glad you are still with us. I hope you have safer employment these days.
The Warrior Gentlemen, He is...
The more I see, hear and read about Christopher Lee the more I'm in awe.
What a truly remarkable person
The man WAS the real James bond. The characters literally portrayed after him.
Sir Christopher Lee, a great hero and a true inspiration, in every conceivable way. To have lived a life that was merely half as eventful, significant and rich as his would still be a great blessing. He made such a great impact on the world, without even holding a seat of power.
He was also trained by some of the greatest fencing msisters if his time and quite capable in h2h.
Brian C he’s in the Guinness book of records for an actor with the most on screen sword fights.
Basil Rathbone level? I saw him and Tyrone Power in Mark of Zorro and they were unreal.
He was one of a very rare and endangered sort of man that I fear is slowly dissapearing. the gentleman spy, the warrior poet a genuine man of the world. Truly a man who contained multitudes
Wonderful.
Well done to that gentleman who ACTUALLY kept his word.
Bravo.
Man, the way his eyes light up at 2:10! If he wasn’t aware this was coming, then he truly is a brilliant actor. Either way, it’s awesome to see such a wonderful man be this delighted.
Honestly it made my day when he received these gifts. I was so happy for him.
Christopher Lee didn't die. He just completed the life and went on to re-start it on extreme hardcore difficulty.
What a great guy, new found admiration for such a great actors...a film should be made of his life!
Simply fantastic! After reading the descriptions I have to say: A very impressive man in so many ways. A real hero, great actor, very intelligent, smart and a true gentlemen able to speak 11 ! languages!
Thanks a lot for uploading and sharing.
Best regards luck and health to all involved people.
When you think you have achieved a lot in your life, Christopher Lee tells you to sit down.
and he's also a rockstar for real
Nop he wouldn´t. he would acknolage your achievments and encourage you to go ahead. Because thats what great men do.
This is just charming - what an astonishing man, so heroic, modest, and gracious. Thank you for the post. Respect Mr Lee.
What an absolute gentleman. You could tell how touched he was but he still managed to provide some anecdotes for the show to keep the interview rolling along without barely a pause.
This guy was a war hero unlike the modern actors of today
The guy who come closest would be Charles Bronson. I think he served in WW2 aswell.

fun fact: Lee's mother was an Italian countess.
Contessa Draculina ? :)

so cool - what a pleasure - thanks for uploading
It's beautiful that you did that for Mr Lee.
I imagine that ID he carried got him a few drinks on the house as well. A modest gentleman of rare character and experience. I had a friend from the other side who was with General Steiner's HQ when it interacted with Tito.
Christopher Lee--a real gentleman, actor, combat veteran, patriot, and scholar.
Phenomenal ! Keep em' coming, this is starting to become my favorite channel on UA-cam.
He was one of a kind, thank god there were people like him , his Generation was the greatest for what they saw and what they did. Godspeed Christopher thank you and your Generation again . G.B.N.F. Ever
RIP
The definition of the word “gentleman” may you R.I.P.
Always loved this guy. Didn't know he had been involved with special forces. My admiration has now turned to the utmost respect
If there is a Heaven, I'm certain God is sitting by Sir Lees sides, looking at him in admiration, listening to him telling stories from his most amazing life!!
@Djasko M doesn't that get rid off negative energy tho? So that shouldn't have any harm to him
@Djasko M well not everyone believes in the Christian or Catholic faith. Plus there are books older than the bible. I remember one story that is of Noah's ship from another book that is older than the bible but idk
I think Sir Christopher Lee should have been one of the James Bonds rather then being a bad guy. He knew everything about being a spy.
He also knew Ian Flemming, they were step-cousins
Too much practical experience. He is likely to kill someone by reflex.
The look on his face when he saw them and the gratitude in his voice, you can tell his was ecstatic.
I am so happy that Sir Lee finally received his award.
as a Belgian I never even knew Sir Lee had been on our television! I'd have done everything to get a seat in the audience then. Little (kinda moodchanging) trivia : Brigade "Diane" was the special unit of the Belgian "rijkswacht" which was the military wing of the police force (yet different from the MP's) and served as a kind of national gaurd and heavier crime fighting. They were however recently disgraced as it was finally confirmed that (suspicions had been there from the start) that some of their members were involved in the ruthless "Nivel gang" which terrorised Belgium in the late 80's during several shop raids in which all costumers were routinely gunned down for a loot not even worth the cost of the bullets fired. Neither their true motives nor identities were ever fully confirmed as they managed to escape or even fight of the police which made clear they needed to have been part of a higly trained organisation. Their professionalism and the fact that the investigation was on several occassions sabotaged from within made it obvious the gang had to belong to some higly trained influencial group. The raids only stopped when after yet another killing spree a firefight broke out with the police in which one of the members was confirmed hit (possibly fatal) and the Belgian goverment declared they would actually send in the Belgian paratroopers to counter them from now on.A year ago a dying former member of Group Diane finally confirmed on his deathbed that he was part of the gang renewing the search for the other members after 30 years.
3:47 Even now he presses his advantage. His attack will come soon.
you are all going to die
a fine addition to his collection
He was in Yugoslavia ???? Jesus Christ no way, Im surprised noone has ever told us anything about this great man here, just wow
He met comrade Tito and he was fascinated by him.
Many Yugoslavs were massacred at the end of the war by the Russians and British. I hope Christopher Lee wasn’t involved in that
@@rhysnichols8608 by this point, that is impossible to find out but I hope he wasn't involved as well.

Thank you for sharing this golden nugget 👌🏻😎
Christopher Lee was so good at announcing words in other languages
Sir Christopher Lee is a man who could've worn a "the man 👆, the legend 👇" t-shirt and still manage to carry it off with respect and dignity.
I swear. His life sounds made up but he's on the level. He speaks multiple languages, has killed men. And he's into the occult. After he passed, who got his shit!?
The Dark Side! Bwaahahahahaha!!
He's also a direct ancestor of Charlemagne btw
