Dang!

The Return of the Three Musketeers was just on Channel 4... except I didn't know this until about half an hour before the end, and hence seem to have managed to miss the entirety of Christopher Lee's performance in it. Very annoying, since I've never seen it before, and would definitely have taped it if I'd known. *Grinds teeth*

I do try very hard to keep track of his appearances on TV, mainly using DigiGuide, but of course searching for the string "Christopher Lee" only brings up items where he is billed fairly high in the credits, since DigiGuide obviously can't list every single actor who appears in every film shown. Sometimes I get lucky and spot things which don't come up on a search... and sometimes I don't. :(

I have to say Rochefort is one of my favourite roles for him.

Kim Cattrall in tight leather britches and Christopher Lee? There should be some sort of formal alert for this kind of thing.

Indeed! It is what I call a 'double-whammy': i.e. Lee alongside someone else who is nearly (though never quite, of course) as sexy as him. Other examples include Death Train with Pierce Brosnan, The Wicker Man with Britt Ekland or The Man with the Golden Gun with Roger Moore and Britt Ekland! *faints*

And of course I understand about the errant apostrophe! They happen to the best of us sometime's. ;)

Roger Moore? ROGER MOORE?

Surely not.

Well, I know he's a bit wrinkly and leathery now, but as a smarmy, sarcastic James Bond there was something sexy about him: well, I certainly thought so as a thirteen-year-old, anyway!
