Was it me or did he come across as a bit of a drip on Who DO You Think Are? I mean he seems lovely as well haha

Hmm I see where you're coming from. I think it was the hair; shorter hair suits him so much better!
RE: Rupert Penry-Jones - Kazters - 17-08-2010 06:53 AM
he looked a little unwell i thought in parts, very pale and a little tired!
I agree Nia the hair is better short!
it was really interesting though!
and my twitter comment was RPJ is dyslexic to! all the best people are! i to struggled to read that writing!
he did look literaly hot at one point though!

I thought the episode was OK but it wasn't the most interesting of the series. It would perhaps have been more interesting if they had kept the Indian blood thing back until the end. Instead you were expecting it from the start. Like you guys, I also thought he didn't look particularly well. As for not being able to read the writing, he was clearly embarrassed about that, but the producers could have helped him more so he wasn't struggling on camera.

it did seem a little harsh really thinking back on it, especialy near the end when he was almost pleading at the camera guy to help him!
it seemed to just end as well which was odd if you know what i mean?

Yes that was a little uncomfortable, watching him in the church at the end. I don't think it added anything to the program so why show him struggling like that. They could have just cut that scene. In most of the other episodes, there are always researchers about to help. He was just left in this church in the middle of nowhere, with no help, trying to interpret those ancient books.

Who Do You Think You Are? starring actor Rupert Penry-Jones averaged 5.18m (21.4%) from 9pm.
i agree tea lady - there was no reason why they wouldnt have either got the LOVELY pastor to help or someone else!

Good news for scottish RPJ fans, the new series of Whitechapel starts on STV soon
I can't find any confirmation that ITV will also be showing it on Monday 11 October at 9 pm, but the new Stephen Tompkinson drama DCI Banks finishes the week before, so fingers crossed, even if it clashes with season 9 of Spooks!! http://entertainment.stv.tv/tv/199325-whitechapel-brings-darkness-back-to-stv-screens/
