OK, you can say this any month but given the Star Wars tenet running through posts at the mo, I couldn't resist today!
My favourite Sith has got be Darth Maul played by Martial Artist Ray Parks in the Phantom Manace. I onced had lunch at Birmingham's Memorabilia at the NEC and guess who was eating at the next table? Yep, Ray Parks. He had a double headed knife and fork! Hee hee.
Have you ever been near or met anyone from the Star Wars universe?

what a load of b*lloc*s!
Well I've got two close encounters (oops-wrong film) to relate Woodsy. At a Star Wars event held many moons ago I had the pleasure of acting as an assistant to Jeremy Bulloch at his signing table and have a photo of us together and an autographed photo of Boba Fett thanking me for my help both of which I treasure (and he is such a nice guy too) but better than that is the story of my membership card! Even longer ago than previous, I was in a WH Smiths store in Glasgow (around 1980-can't remember exactly)I noticed a guy in a superbly detailed Vader costume signing autographs so on a whim I decided to get my Official Star Wars Fan Club membership card signed. So I handed over the card, he looked at it and asked "Who's your favorite character?" now this was odd, as he hadn't spoken to anyone else, but I replied "Han Solo" he seemed to think for a minute the wrote on the back of my card and handed it back. I didn't look at it till later and then got a surprise-written on the back was-To Steven from Darth Vader(D.P.). Now admittedly I can't be sure....but I like to think that meant just what it said!
