Is this any good? Does PF have a decent role in it, or is it one of those that you only see him for a few seconds in?

Err, well it's ok. It's probably one of his better "minor" rolls. He actually plays the evil Nazi really well which is a bit scary. Can't say I would watch it again but must have been an interesting part for Peter to play.

Thanks, richliga. I've seen this interview before but I very much enjoyed reading it again. Mainly because PF's attitude to money is identical to mine! I can't bear an overly serious, anxious or grasping attitude to money so it makes me like PF all the more for his happy (and of course, to me, sensible) approach.

I was having a trawl through you tube last night and came across "Me and Mrs Jones". I had randomly played a bit of part 10 and was very pleasantly surprised when PF suddenly appeared in a background scene. I hadn't realised he was in it, so I started at part 1 and had a very pleasant evening watching him in Sir Humphrey mode! It was very enjoyable. If anyone is interested, it's shown in ten parts on you tube and is good quality.

Thanx..... watched that this morning. is it Tv series or a film?
RE: Peter Firth #2 - DogSoSmall - 21-05-2011 12:28 PM
I've no idea. Anyone else? I think it must be quite recent.
It made me laugh in the party scenes the way PF kept appearing in the background talking to a different set of people. I could imagine him getting a kick out of stage-managing that!

It's a TV movie, from 2002. I got it on DVD awhile ago - I think it's quite easily available. PF's not in it that much, unfortunately, but I thought it quite an enjoyable film nevertheless.

If you love watching Peter in smart suit and ties, it's a great film
RE: Peter Firth #2 - Forever Secret - 21-05-2011 09:04 PM
I just bought White Angel on DVD
I have no idea if I'm going to like it, but I've been told Peter is very good in it... Saw some pics from the movie on the PF site, I have to say he looks pretty scary haha His performence in Equus unsettled me too but thats what was so brilliant about it ... *waits patiently*
Annoyed I didn't get to catch "Garden of Redemption" the other day :/
Haha TL *agrees* Peter in a suit, good good
