Cod-pieces?

But seriously, doublet and hose. No gold ties. You may have to change your name to "SilkHose."

I've no doubt PF will sport his hose most elegantly! Trying not to look forward to this solelyfor that reason.

Very glad that this new project has come up as it bodes well for PF stepping into that "mature character actor" slot that Pete Posselthwaite has left vacant - still time for that Oscar, Peter!!

I had to smile when I read that PF might step into that “mature” character actor slot. Do you mean mature now – in that case I am surprised that there was no uproar from his fans – or in 10 years? To my annoyance my American husband looks up the biography of supporting actors in his “Character Actors” book. Why are character actors in the States considered supporting players and not featured actors? I agree with you that PF is Oscar-material.
PS: To be fair I get on my husband's nerves too when I ask him to correct my replies. "What are you doing, he asks, writing an essay or something." If only he knew.
