- Cygnus Alpha - do something about Brian Blessed, to make him underplay the
role, or get someone else who *would*. It would have made a huge difference IMO if Vargas had been a quieter, more subtle menace (and didn't wear tennis shoes).
Brian Blessed is perfectly capable of doing quiet menace, as I've just seen during my first viewing of the original Blackadder. Most of the time he's loud and boisterous and, well, Brian, but there are a couple of scenes where he does the quiet menace thing, and does it very, very well. I found myself wishing that someone had sat on him during Cygnus Alpha and made him do the quiet menace thing there. -- Julia Jones
Brian Blessed meets Rowan Atkinson - episode of your choice.
