...sadly not the actual kiss Bunny, but you can see him lean into the crowd [towards me] & say something (which was 'how lovely to see you'!) then he kissed me & took a marshmallow!
On reflection I think this vid was taken by one of the official photographers there, who was standing just one person away from me on my left, & as he had to turn sideways to get Julian in shot he just managed to cut me out of the pic, which would have shown the actual kiss. Nevermind, I'll have to shove a bit harder next time to make sure I'm in shot!!
A lovely little memory though. [for me I mean- I'm sure it won't be for JRT!!]

No G&C , you just have to have a devastating wit , be blindingly attractive & also interested in motorbikes! [as well as always carrying a bag of his favourite goodies! ]

I know. Being a veggie too, I only ever eat them very rarely.
I love 'em but just can't face the thought of eating animal by products
In view of M & S's policy on 'quality' foods etc, I've constantly asked them to use agar agar , instead of animal by products...same result but kinder to animals. ?!

...you're quite right Ducatilady...I was trying to immitate 'the swish'... JRT style!
Should have worn glasses on the back of my head really...I may have seen more of what was going on then?!!

...likewise MW! Won't give the plot away!
I saw Stardust last night & thoroughly enjoyed it. Not much of The Boy Wonder though sadly.
All I will say, is that for those of us [not many!] who are old enough to remember "Mr Pastry" on the tv- Julian bears a striking resemblance to him in this role!! However, I leave you to make up your own minds when you see it/him. Mark Heap was a bit 'Stathamish' again but was also good in a small/cameo role. I thought that Clare Danes wasn't that great & didn't seem nearly naive enough to be Yvaine.[tho' they didn't stick strictly to the book so one has to allow for artistic licence I guess?!] For me, Robert de Niro stole the movie ...he was terrific! The special effects are fantastic too!

I really enjoyed Stardust last night as well.......Julian was fantastic as ever - not nearly enough of him though!
I thought Michelle Phieffer was brilliant as was Sarah Alexander (Dr Hunter in GW for those who don't know that) Claire Danes was ok, Robert De Niro was fabulous and bloody Ricki Gevais really didn't need to be in it...why was he? I thought he was totally unnecessary! (sorry to all the RG fans out there) but anyway, they you go - my opinion.

...I totally agree with you about Ricky Gervais MW.
What a pain in the a--e he really is! An over rated 'comic' & crap actor. God knows how or why he's so successful? Possibly as his humour [?] is so obvious he goes down well with the Yanks.. who always need pointing in the right direction where humour is concerned!
Great film tho' & well worth taking the children to see...for those of you with kiddie winkies!

I've just had this link from Amazon to 'Stardust; the visual companion' I've no idea what it is, has anyone seen it in the shops?

ooh, we're just back. Shame to waste such a wonderfully sunny day in the cinema, but there you go.
Well, I thought it was very good, but not for young children - some had to be taken out as they were just bored by it - but it did go on a bit.
Of course, you know who was just wonderful in it..... Hope it leads to more work for him.
