    I met David Prowse at a Comic-Con once and he was a lovely guy. He was in a wheelchair at the time. I said to him that I remembered him as the Green cross code man and he told me that he loved doing that. I wonder how many lives he saved

    George Lucas blamed David Prowse for leaking The Return of the Jedi ending so when Luke takes of Vaders helmet David was replaced by Sebastian Shaw. I hope George regretted his actions.

    I knew that he’d had a falling out, but didn’t know it was over that.

    Obi-Wan: “You can’t win, Darth. If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”

    Vader: “‘Ark at ‘ee!”

    “These aren’t the druids you’ve been looking for”



    ok, Vader didn’t say that!

    Had to nip out on the bike to pick up a few pre match bit and pieces. Bloody chilly, a litre of Jägermeister slipped into the bag along with the Palm beer and Hoegaarden.

    Darth Vader says to Luke I know what you've got for Christmas. Luke asks How do you know? Darth Vader replied I felt your presents

    A local newsagent was broken into last night. Thieves got away with all the cigarettes and Cadburys Caramel bars. Police say they are looking for a Rabbit with a very bad cough.

    This was his downfall, with regards to speaking in Star Wars, because he kept trying to insert the line “Stop, Luke, Listen”.

    Oh I’ve heard those clips, but they were never publicly available until the internet came along. Even James Earl Jones’s voice was modified to account for Vader’s head gear and respiratory issues, so Lucas could have done something similar for Prowse’s. Anyway, Dave was a professional actor, and even Bristolian actors can manage different accents if they try!

    Furious lightsabre duel is under way.
    DARTH VADER is backing LUKE SKYWALKER toward the end of the gantry.
    A quick move by Vader, chops off Luke's hand! It goes spinning off into the ventilation shaft.
    Luke backs away.
    He looks round, but realises there's nowhere to go but straight down.

    DARTH VADER: "Obi Wan never told you what happened to your father."

    LUKE: "He told me enough! He told me you killed him!"

    DARTH VADER: "No! I am your father!"

    LUKE: "No, it's not true! It's impossible."

    DARTH VADER: "Search your feelings; you know it to be true."

    LUKE: "NO!"

    DARTH VADER: "Yes, it is true and you know what else? You know that brass droid of yours?"

    LUKE: "Threepio?"

    DARTH VADER: "Yes, Threepio, I built him when I was seven years old."

    LUKE: "No."

    DARTH VADER: "Seven years old? And what have you done?
    Look at yourself, no hand, no job, and couldn't even levitate your own ship out of the swamp."

    LUKE: "I destroyed your precious Death Star!"

    DARTH VADER: "When you were 20! When I was 10, I single-handedly destroyed a Trade Federation Droid Control ship!"

    LUKE: "Well, it's not my fault."

    DARTH VADER: "Oh, here we go. 'Poor me, my father never gave me what I wanted for my birthday, boo hoo,
    my daddy's the Dark Lord of the Sith.. waahhh wahhh!'"

    LUKE: "Shut up."

    DARTH VADER: "You're a slacker! By the time I was your age, I had exterminated the Jedi knights!"

    LUKE: "I used to race my T-16 through Beggar's Canyon!"

    DARTH VADER: "Oh, for the love of the Emperor, 10 years old, winner of the Boonta Eve Open.
    Only human to ever fly a Pod Racer, right here baby!"

    Luke looks down the shaft. Takes a step toward it.

    DARTH VADER: "I was wrong. You're not my kid. I don't know whose you are, but you sure ain't mine."

    Luke takes a step off the platform, hesitates, then plunges down the shaft.

    Darth Vader looks after him.

    DARTH VADER: "And get a haircut!"
