Thanks for that info.For some reason I always put Alec Guinness,Laurence Olivier & Sir John Gielgud together in my mind -I dont know why...Eddie Muir wrote:They worked together as early as 1938 when Alec Guinness play the Fool to Laurence Olivier's Lear in Shakespeare's King Lear.
Alec Guinness was awarded the Laurence Olivier Theatre Special Award in 1989.
Olivier was knighted in 1947; Guinness in 1959.

Probably because they were all renowned British actors of a similar age, Pete.

Re: New Smilies
You don't. You use google to search for a site that provides free smileys.

Re: New Smilies
Hmmm... seems to me that the interesting quality of the forum depends on the quality of the text people post, rather than whether it includes "boring" smileys or not.
