Not that is is terribly humorous, it is just an advert, but it is very British. Just a tweet I stumbled upon, just now, from Sir Patrick, it is an ad apparently, for Yorkshire tea. I am sure he is quoting some famous piece of proze, or poetry, here but I did not know what, I have not looked it up. The way he carries it just struck me as very funny. Also his ride on a horse, the tweet below for his 82nd Birthday was somehow very funny. You are becoming better with age dear Patrick!

We need to decide who's the best Yorkshireman...

Sean Bean...




...or Patrick Stewart?




I agree that the prose is better in Patrick's effort - but for me, Sean brings more intensity to the game, so he gets my vote!

I only just realized, that apart from 'Patriot Games' with Harrison Ford as Jack Ryan, I should have recognized Sean Bean as Boromir! Strange I didn't.

Here is the Fellowship of the Ring on the slopes of Caradhras The Cruel, trying to cross the Misty Mountains and the Redhorn (The same mountain in the common language) Gate.



Sean Bean did not like flying to all the film locations, so where the others all went by helicopter, he would walk the whole distance, fully dressed for the part. And often would be there two hours early, so he would not keep the whole film crew waiting if the journey would take a little longer than he anticipated. That's the real spirit for Middle Earth. On foot, or by horse!
