maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted May 9, 2007 Apparantly there is two competing biopics being made. Was on the local news a few days ago. One stars Liam Neeson apparantly. So it's serious, then. Was this a covert side deal linked to the peace agreement? I mean, if they're honest biopics they'll have to confront stuff he downplays, like just what that 'Dr' title is really worth. He's still robust enough to sue and block anything he doesn't like. Be well interested in seeing this stuff when it comes. Ironic mind, the guy who played Michael Collins and is preparing to play Abraham Lincoln, also plays Ian Paisley!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
One shot Paddy 1,206 Posted May 13, 2007 Apparantly there is two competing biopics being made. Was on the local news a few days ago. One stars Liam Neeson apparantly. Ironic mind, the guy who played Michael Collins and is preparing to play Abraham Lincoln, also plays Ian Paisley!! I don't think he will as he had a bit of a row with "DR NO" a few years ago.

maryportfuncity 10,658 Posted May 13, 2007 On the other hand, that row would be all the more reason to do it once the great man was dead! Doubtless Paisley is the kind of complex figure who'd make a great movie once he was out of the way. Bit like Idi Amin did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
One shot Paddy 1,206 Posted May 14, 2007 I agree, once he was gone there would be a better chance of a" warts n all" movie rather than a rose/ orange lilly tinted version! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 12,661 Posted June 22, 2009 Watch this space, I heard a rumour from somebody (I know, I know - NOT a reliable source) that Paisley hasn't been too well recently. He was one of the two sitting MPs not present today at the Speaker's election and Williams McCrea has to represent him instead as DUP group leader. He could be on his way out soon....

Only 600 sitting MPs voted in the speaker's election. So about 46 didn't bother showing up, including my own beloved MP... I wouldn't read too much into it.

He may well die whilst in office, but if he was indeed ill, it is unlikely that he would contend his seat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
