rockhopper penguin 2,264 Posted January 29, 2017 This is just too weird to be true. The BBC remake 10 Rillington Place and screen it last December. The author of Watership Down, Richard Adams dies in late December. January 25, John Hurt dies. And today Many clouds the horse that won the 2015, Grand National collapsed and died after winning a race at Cheltenham. Who could have predicted that? No one. That's why it's a FUCKING COINCIDENCE FOOL. I was going to ignore this,but...... 1. I never said it could be predicted by anyone. 2. All I said was that it was that it was weird. i.e. coincidental 3. Now why don't you just waddle back to your nest or whatever Penguins have,you FUCKING BIRDBRAIN. Specieist! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Charlotte's Controller 180 Posted January 29, 2017 My father in law said who is John Hurt what was he in, so I know what he looked like. His partner said wasn't he was the one in Elephant Man to which I said I think he was wearing makeup in that one. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

msc 17,789 Posted May 8, 2017 Actually, it works quite well for a 1970s effect, and the cut between Hurt twitching about and Hurt with prosthetic is remarkably well done. As for kids, wouldn't surprise me if they were fine with that, but freaked out by the friendly doll creature on the kids show before hand. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
