Just thought I'd share this with you all:

Brian Blessed doing Sav Nav instructions cannot be missed. I think loading it onto my parents without them knowing is a good option. Does anyone have any favorite Brian Blessed moments? The Have I got News For You was my favorite so far.

I bet John Rhys-Davies feels pretty snubbed right now.

That was indeed a good episode, I want Brian to narrate my life as it happens.

Off topic: Brilliant thread title. On topic, i recently rewatched the original Blackadder (Series 1) and Mr Blessed was very memorable in it.

He wouldn't be helpful as a sat nav, he can't see over the dashboard!

He would if you found him a box.

Yay! This can only be awesome in his typical Brian Blessed way.

Brian Blessed is beyond awesome, he's able to ham it up more than any other actor I've seen while still actually being able to act well when needed.

I hear he is the only man ever to win against a mountain using only his voice

"i thought this was a half life thing"

OT: That was pretty funny.

Is that quote from the old television series I,Claudius?

Yes, easily one of the best TV series of all time in my opinion.

FRESH HORSES!

WHAT?! I HAVE ANOTHER SON?!

Best bit of Blackbooks.

There's also, apparently, a sat nav system with Yoda's voice. I'm honestly not sure which one I want more. It would be either:

Yoda: Turn left, you must. Turning right... leads to suffering.

or

Brian Blessed: TURN LEFT! DRIIIIIIIIIVE!

turning left leads to roundabout
roundabout leads to motorway
motorway leads to slough
slough leads to suffering

And i thought i was the only person on the Escapist who would have heard of such a a tv series. I'm about 3/4 of the way through the series, it was quite brilliant.
