Alec Guinness: The Queen's Head

The dolly old eek of Dame Alec Guinness - star of stage, screen and trampoline - appears on one of a series of stamps of 10 'remarkable' people issued tomorrow.

  1. Want one!
    I love Alec Guinness. He famously said he put all that gay filth behind him once he left college or university or whatever, but I doubt he did. I think he got caught en flagrante delicto in a gentleman's toilet at least once later on. I must read that biography of him.
    Beautiful stamp.

    2. I did say he was caught doing bum later on, but I don't know, it's not that far-fetched. I gave up cock a long time ago, too. I like to think of the last 10 years as my 'Alec Guinness Period'...

  2. The Royal Mail are issuing some great stamps this year.
    In May they're doing a 'Great British Film' series and in June they're issuing a set on 'Sustainable Fish'!!
