Those fine people at the STAR WARS/cult film and TV site FOLLOWING THE NERD have got in touch with me to let me know of some of their STAR WARS related interview material now available on their growing YouTube site.

Check out their fun interviews with the ever amiable Jeremy Bulloch, Richard Le Parmentier, Steve Sansweet and others here: YouTube - followingthenerd's Channel

Marc has also informed us:

We also are just about to do our 3rd weekly global online Wars viewing on Wednesday night (Tonight). Kicking off on May 4th with A New Hope this week we close the trilogy with Jedi. We host the viewings over Facebook, Twitter and Skype and so far they have been very successful.

BACK TO BOBA!

EMPIRE stand in/Bossk performer Alan Harris dons an uncoloured prototype costume for Boba Fett at ELSTREE during the films 1979 pre-production.

Our anniversary celebrations for THE EMPIRE STRIKES BACK continue on our main site, this time with a photo feature on the king of the STAR WARS bounty hunters-Boba Fett.

CLASSIC IMAGE: ACTIVATING A BOUNTY!

Here's a rare April 1979 ELSTREE shot - and if anybody has this in its full photo entirety, and in better quality, please get in touch- that I don't remember in the film, with Darth Vader (David Prowse) in the assembled bounty hunter line stopping near Bossk (Alan Harris), whilst an intimidated Admiral Piett (Kenneth Colley) looks up. I'm assuming the pic was taken in final camera rehearsal for the interior Imperial Super Star Destroyer bridge scene, but its great nonetheless.
