    I had the pleasure of meeting Chris Bunn at a Sci-fi event in Herne Bay in 2015. Luckily for me it was fairly quiet at the time and we had a fascinating chat. Lovely man. He also signed the base of my Stormtrooper base which was a great bonus!!

    Great channel! How about an interview with the actor that played Amanaman, Ailsa Berk? Would be really cool hearing her experience from the Jabba set and beeing that weird (but awesome) creature in Return of the Jedi.

    Great interview. But as we all know, it's not size that matters; it's the dent in the helmet. We know Chris Bunn couldn't strike door because he only has a 3" window.
    Whenever someone mentions The Eagle Has Landed, I like to ask, Went The Day Well?

    I don't know why. But the old school astronaut costume guy in the cantina scene struck me as oddly funny. The devil guy too. Star Wars was light years ahead of any previous "space movie" in production. It almost felt like an homage to earlier sci fi movies where they would just slap together whatever costume they could scrounge up. Like the movie (Don't remember the title) where the "Space Monster" was made from a gorilla suit, but with a creature from the black lagoon type of head. They couldn't afford to make or buy a legit costume. So the costume company gave them a deal on the gorilla suit because it didn't have the head. The head fit so badly you would occasionally see the actor inside... Hilariously bad!!! Nice to finally know the the guys name.
