Thanks for that Aria, I keep forgetting he is in Silk, must make a note to try and watch it.

Just a random thought. For some time I've thought RPJ would make a superb Lord Peter Wimsey. He would bring a lot more smoldering passion to it than Edward Peterbridge did in the previous series (was that in the 80s?). Definitely time for a remake, I reckon. Any budding producers out there?

I am such a fan of Lord Peter Wimsey! I even loved the eighties version, so any remake would please me. RPJ would make a great LPW so long as he could pull off the eccentricity.

I wouldn't have thought so until recently, but he's matured so much and I'm much more impressed by his acting skills now than I ever used to be. And LPW is supposed to be massively attractive to women. He could certainly pull that bit off!!

RPJ talking about new project Silk.

Thanks for the link Aria, I'm really looking forward to Silk, it seems to have some good reports about it.

Watching silk now. Oh he needs to come back to Spooks. I've forgotten how yummy he is! Sorry Lucas fans, but Adam Carter was never really replaced

^me to I agree
I do wish rpj would cut his hair though
RE: Rupert Penry-Jones - HellsBells - 23-02-2011 06:32 PM
Wish he had more screen time on Silk, it did seem to concentrate on his female colleague (can't remember her name!). But I definitely think this is going to be a good series to follow.
Sorry still a Lucas fan!

Watched Silk earlier
It was good; totally unrealistic of course, but very entertaining! I expect RPJ will have more screen-time as the series progresses, but it does seem that the writers are focusing on how difficult it is for women to reach a high-status in law firms; especially when they're defence lawyers
