Hi Lance,
I think Kenny Napper was also playing himself in the film.
Best regards
Harry
You are correct Harry. However, I don't think that's Kenny in the photo.
10 Rillington Place was horribly good.
yes that film was scary, in fact, it gave me nightmares..
Dickie and I go way back. One day, long ago on location in Durham Cathedral on the film set of Elizabeth , the days passed slowly (there was lots of sitting around as the crew set-up the next shot). Richard Attenborough, playing the part of Sir William Cecil, wandered over in full costume and said: Do you mind if I rest my weary legs? I motioned to Dickie to sit down. I too was in full costume (robe, big pointy hat and big XXX comedy stick-on beard) playing the part of a bishop. Of course, disguised as I was, Dickie didn’t recognise me. No matter, I recognised him. Within seconds we struck up a conversation. He guessed I was a football fan – either Newcastle or Sunderland. He was right, I was. I knew he supported Chelsea. We talked football and this and that. Some time later he was called to prepare for the day’s big scene – the one where the wonderful Cate Blanchett (as Elizabeth) makes a set-piece speech before the assembled noble lords and pointy-hatted bishops. Dickie bade me farewell. He didn’t know me from any other extra he’d chatted to in a lifetime in cinema but I knew he was Richard Attenborough.
