Firstly.... that's awesome, get it published. If you're trite or offhand (and I may have been in this article) then people will pull you up on it - and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that at all. I'm never overly worried about people being offended, becuase that's a choice. If I worried about offending people i'd never write anything - my readership is very diverse and so everything gets a little blowback whichever way I push.

Christopher Lee is truly an excellent actor and he does have a good following here. The man was an absolute legend and I've considered writing about him a few times but never got round to it. He's that particular flavour of aristocratic eccentric we do so very well in this country. Lee is most famous for Hammer Horror stuff over here, but he worked for about 300 years and did some of the most amazing things. We should both write about him!
