JASON ISAACS -- THE LOST GIRLS

There also used to be an older lady, Betty Hoskins, who was on all the old Graham Norton shows. Jason already knew her too, as we found out when he chatted to her on the show. She was a dinner lady at the drama school.

Thanks for that. I love Wimbledon, and remember Ilya Nastase. He was a real mixed bag: friendly, exchanging jokes with the crowd, acting the clown, and then he would lose his temper and shout at the umpire. He became grumpier as he got older. He played doubles with Jimmy Connors, who also would beco...

The link says "... screened in live synchronisation with Christopher Willis' powerful score for the first time." I take that to mean they will show the film and play the music live at the same time - presumably the music bit of the soundtrack will be missing, but the dialogue will still be there. It...

This isn't an interview with Jason, but a short (4 min) radio piece about Cary Grant/Archie in Bristol. I found it very interesting, especially the bit about Bristol bricks being used to build New York.

I never knew that Jason won the role against the A list actor for Peter Pan.

Nor I - or that Jude Law was supposed to play Tavington.

I liked the bit when Jason met the man who dubs him into French (I assume that was as Lucius?)

Sounds interesting. I follow a couple of channels for young musical actors on YouTube, and it's definitely not easy to break into that industry. And once they've gotten one job, doesn't mean they will be cast in something new when their contract is over. This sort of thing also happened to people w...

Great that you met up with Jason again, ladies!

That's a long interview - I think she's a fan!

Jason said much more about Cary Grant and Dyan in that interview too.

A good interview - Jason still seemed to have a bit of the orange tan left on him - it complements his eyes.

It's interesting to hear how open he is about his addictive past nowadays.

I've noticed that some Northern English accents and Scottish accents have some Norwegian sounding slang. :D I lived in the Netherlands for 9 years, and some words are very similar in different northern European languages - I could understand the signs on the ferries in Norwegian or Swedish because ...

Without rereading the book, I would summarise the difference is that the story is about Peter, Wendy and the Lost Boys (which include Wendy's brothers). Tinker Bell is a main character too. She is in love with Peter so she hates Wendy, so that bit is the same. However although Hook is not in the sto...

I haven't rewatched this recently, although I often catch it on TV here (where it's shown regularly around Easter & Christmas when children are off school). I think it's a great film for Jason, as he has so much screen time, and gets to play so many emotions as both Hook & Mr Darling. Jason is one o...

Of course we don't know exactly what went on in Cary Grant's mind, and it will always be speculation, informed to a greater or lesser degree by what other people saw in him. But I am interested that Dyan Cannon, although so badly hurt by her husband when she was a young woman, is nowadays so forgivi...

A long very good written interview with photo shoot. I don't want to say more to not spoil it for you: https://squaremile.com/culture/film-tv/jason-isaacs-interview/ Thanks to Jason Isaacs News on Twitter. This interview (much more than an interview) is really good, with some beautiful B&W photos -...

I'm sure Dyan Cannon is a very nice woman, but why oh why has she had all that work done? Does she really think it makes her look better? Hollywood has a lot to answer for when it comes to the way it regards older women.
