I played Pitt the Younger in #Blackadder 3. I worked on many other productions but that's the one that really changed my life! I give historical talks, blog and still act

Remembering actress Ruth Madoc whose death was anounced Three Years Ago Today! I met quite a few of the cast of Hi-de-Hi as they were filming the same day as Blackadder! They were all great! Ruth was so great in that role! ❤️

Halit Ergenc as Sultan Suleiman the Magnificent! The real Suleiman was often depicted wearing a Turban! These were actually shrouds, reminding Sultans that they were only men, that Allah was always watching them, and that one day they would be buried in those same shrouds! #history #Turkiye

It was 99 Years Ago yesterday that author Agatha Christie went missing for 11 Days! What happened was never made public! There is a story that says that a key was hidden in the Pera Palace Hotel in Istanbul that would unlock a box containing her journal account of the missing days!
