I loved him as Jason King. I would watch it when I stayed with my grandparents & I can remember one episode with a very young Felicity Kendal playing a French girl who died & the suave Mr King was reduced to tears. Blimey I feel really old, not helped by hearing the news about David Cassidy which resulted in me becoming a tearful, nostalgic mess. I love Merchant & think Al Pacino's Shylock was masterful, mind you he also reduced me to tears. Obviously time for bed!Oooh, you've sent me down a memory rabbit hole! Did the MOV for O level, many donkeys of years ago, and went to see it on the stage - Peter Wyngard played Shylock. Someone at the back dropped a bag of sweets and they clattered and rolled all the way down to the stage. He wasn't pleased.
Just thought you'd like to know ...
Was Peter Wyngard /Jason King the man with the amazing black moustache ?
I did MOV for O level in 1972. It's true that I can remember vividly details and facts going back donkey's years but tend to forget very recent stuff !
I know, terribly sad about David Cassidy, he was such a good looker in his youth. Although I personally preferred David Essex, who I think has a actually improved with age!hearing the news about David Cassidy which resulted in me becoming a tearful, nostalgic mess.
