    He seems like he's a genuinely lovely bloke. Although, I've gotta say, seeing "ol' goalpost head" as an old man with balding white hair makes me feel really old myeslf lol. Holograms don't age 😉

    I was working as crew for a convention many years ago, the entire cast of Red Dwarf had been persuaded to attend by Danny John Joules, but when they all arrived they were told that Danny would not be attending, because he had swanned off to the Caribbean to play a role in the short lived (still running now) Murder in Paradise. The cast roasted him magnificently during one of the live talks.
    On the last day of the con, the crew were clearing away the venue, and many missed getting signed cast photos, Chris Barrie and Rob Llewellyn stayed in the car park an hour after the event had officially finished signing photos on the hood of Chris' Land Rover and just talking to people. Both very class acts in my opinion.

    They should start writing new books for Chris to record the audio for. I’ve been listening to him read infinity welcomes careful drivers and better than life and it’s just insane how well he gets all the voices spot on it’s like you really are hearing an extended episode of the show that makes those audio books timeless. I just wish we had more!

    I met Chris, Danny and Hattie at Reading a few years ago and this is exactly the experience I got from all of them. Really genuine to the fans, Danny made sure that the guy in front of me got a really good selfie and was surprised that I remembered his role in Blade 2 when I lamented that the chances of me geing Ron Pearlman's autograph on the same picture was practically zero.
