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.

Want one!
ReplyDeleteI 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.
'He famously said he put all that gay filth behind him once he left college or university or whatever.'
DeleteYeah right...
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'...
DeleteThe Royal Mail are issuing some great stamps this year.
ReplyDeleteIn May they're doing a 'Great British Film' series and in June they're issuing a set on 'Sustainable Fish'!!
