UNITE FOR CHILDREN, UNITE AGAINST AIDS- LEARN MORE
firstly "happy birthday" on your 78th year Sir Roger,delighted to hear you have provided commentarys for the forthcoming UK dvd release of "the persuaders!" and one of the episodes is a favourite of mine "the long goodbye" directed by yourself,did you find it easy doing the comms by yourself or do you prefer doing them with someone? cant wait to hear your thoughts on directing "the persuaders!" many thanks lenny.
I have done a number of commentaries with other people, and always find them great fun. It's nice to have company as you are reminded of stories and incidents that then spark another story. There is always a moderator to do that too, but it feels a little more spontaneous when you are just chatting with mates. So yes, I prefer doing it with someone.
Happy Birthday for the 14th. Known as JamesMoriarty
Thank you James. I don't feel 78 either. 77 yes, but not 78. I very much enjoyed playing Holmes, particularly as it was with my good friend Patrick MacNee as Watson. It was something totally different to the roles I had played until then, and really nice to go off at a tangent and in a different direction. I also got my son Geoffrey in the film too! As for another Sherlockian part. There might be something in that vein next year, but I can't say anything more.
Secondly - my question is this: I think I remember you saying sometime you like to read biographies /autobiographies. Of course I've read all the books written about you. Can you recommend any bios that you particularly enjoyed please and have you read the one that Tony Curtis wrote? (I haven't). Sorry, I know there are two questions in there, but you can answer either one if you like. Many thanks again and Best wishes
Well Noel, yes I do like reading
biographies because I'm a very nosey sort of person. I'm presently
reading the wonderful one on the Queen Mother which I can highly
recommend. I'm also reading A Man Of Many Parts, by an actor called
Neal Arden who I've known for many years, and worked with on tv.
You can read what people think about Tony's biography on his forum here
Hello Sir Roger, I was stunned to hear that the drug problem was so common in the acting world back in the late seventies (if, that is, the claims in the book are true). So, I thought I'd ask if you had witnessed drug abuse by actors or directors during your busy and prolific time on films sets in the late seventies? Obviously I know that it would be unreasonable of me to expect you to name names, but did you ever experience working on film sets where your co-stars or directors were indulging in drugs? Or, in your experience, is the statement about cocaine
being "easily obtainable on virtually every film set back
in the the seventies" a bit of an exaggeration?
I'm sure they were easily obtainable. They probably are now too if you know the right people!
Dear Sir Roger, First please let me thank you for your continuous interest in answering our questions. I believe to know that UNICEF generally collects money in order to provide nutrition to children wordwide, immunizing them, improving education, etc. May I please ask you what UNICEF is doing in case of such an immediate catastrophy like the present (I am writing this on 11th October) earthquake in Pakistan and neighbouring countries? Is there anything like an "emergency plan" UNICEF has? Thank you very much and once again Happy Birthday for 14th October. Best wishes always, Martin from Vienna
There are always emergencies Martin - India being the latest, where I am due to travel next week. UNICEF is the "emergency fund" and whilst continuing to run many campaigns, also has to be ready to move in at a moment's notice to areas hit by natural disasters. Check their website for up to date reports and the action they are taking.
Hello Sir Roger. Am a new member to your website
and a long time follower of your I'm not sure I lasted a full
week! But yes, I did try to do stand up. So that story is true
Karl. I was so successful that I never did it again and have blanked
it from my memory ... until now!!
"AND THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR KIND GREETINGS. WHAT LOVELY PEOPLE YOU ARE, AND HOW LUCKY I AM" Sir Roger Moore

Thank
you Lenny, though my birth certificate must be wrong! I can't
be 78.
experience?
Would you return to the role (or another Sherlockian part) if
asked? You don't look 78. Yours Sincerely, James Potts, 
have read Tony Curtis' one too. Great fun.

career.
My question is this - Is it true that very early on in your career
you did a weeks 'stand up' routine in Pontypridd, South Wales?
I need to know as I'm sure I read it somewhere a number of years
back and, being a boy from the Valleys, I'm very curious to know
whether it's true or false (if false I'll understand if you ban
me from the website!!). Belated Birthday greeting's for the 14th.
Best wishes, Karl  |
