Thanks BC I thought it was.....................em poetic too LOL

Yes, that was great - can't remember his exact words but when he said to the girls in the castle: You meet me in my room at 8:00. you at 9:00, then turns back to her and says: and bring a friend. You got there first Ginny - yes it was a classic

Truly madly deeply when he has all his cold dead friends in the house and Juliet Stephenson has met new man and he is standing at window with such a sad look on his face awwwwwwww

from answers(.)com ''British stage and screen actor Alan Rickman became familiar to American audiences in 1988 when he was cast in the role of Hans Gruber in the action-film hit Die Hard, starring Bruce Willis. Born in Hammersmith, London, on February, 21, 1946, Rickman started out as a graphic designer. He won a scholarship to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London in the early seventies, and soon after began performing on the British stage. In 1985, he starred in the Royal Shakespeare Company production of Les Liaisons Dangerouses, originating the role of Le Vicomte de Valmont. He reprised the role in the RSC's production on Broadway in 1987, and received a Tony Award nomination for Best Actor. Professing to prefer theatre over film, Rickman has turned down film roles that conflicted with his stage work. In 2002, he was again nominated for a Tony for Best Actor for his role in the revival of Noel Coward's Private Lives, and for a Laurence Olivier Theatre Award for Best Actor, and he won the Variety Club Show Business Award for Best Stage Actor for the role. Rickman became Vice-Chairman of the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA) in 2003. Rickman has appeared in dozens of films, including January Man (1989), Quigley Down Under (1990), Truly, Madly, Deeply (1991), Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves (1991-- BAFTA Best Supporting Actor), Bob Roberts (1992), Mesmer (1994), An Awfully Big Adventure (1995), Sense and Sensibility (1995), Michael Collins (1996), Dogma (1999), Galaxy Quest (1999), Blow Dry (2001), Love Actually (2003), and the Harry Potter series, beginning in 2001. Rickman made his feature directorial debut, in 1997, in the film The Winter Guest, which he co-scripted with playwright Sharman MacDonald. In 1995, Rickman gave an acclaimed perfomance in the title role of the HBO movie Rasputin, winning an Emmy Award. He was nominated for an Emmy Award again in 2004, for his role in the television movie Something the Lord Made, in which he played doctor Alfred Blalock.''

You see - brains too (PS he loves the 'more mature lady')

''An interview with Alan Rickman by Carol Muskoron He's in his fifties, very sexy and starring alongside Emma Thompson, Hugh Grant and Liam Neeson in the new release, Love Actually, which is being billed as one of the biggest British films of all time... Does it bother you that women often look at you for your possible worth in bed rather than looking at your acting? It amuses me! I set out to be as honest and open and direct an actor as I can. And I've noticed that when actors try to work openly, some kind of attraction is created because people see a route to you as a person, or they think they do. Maybe that creates an attraction; it's not to do with any conventional looks; it's the emotions an actor taps into. After the Sheriff of Nottingham in Robin Hood Prince of Thieves and the bad guy in Die Hard, do you think you've cornered the 'baddie market'? No. I've played such a mixture of characters. They're all different from me - I think as much about Truly, Madly, Deeply and Sense And Sensibility as I do about the baddie parts. But do you prefer hamming it up to the more normal roles? I like doing it all, really. If you're asked to be very minimal and real, that's just as interesting as hamming it up. A film like Love Actually is fairly restrained but it's not less of a challenge. It can be much easier in a way to come on all guns blazing. A lot of what Love Actually is about what isn't being said - between me and Emma, anyway.''

BC (Yeah I was underwhelmed too but it 's the only one I have.) *Squares shoulders and decides to carry on blagging it* The man was a god what can I say !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can even forgive him being called Sidney - I'm sorry but at THAT moment it would be 'Alan' not 'Sid'

....er...Marie....I am overwhelmed...Richard Stilgoe, eh? :-))))

Thank you Marion!!!
