Another chance for that Obi-Ewan Kenobi line…

Ewan McGregor, a man almost as ubiquitous as Robert Carlyle, has been spending a few quiet nights in with the video. His Blockbuster choices? The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, of course. Ewan has been researching the style of Alec Guiness "to try and catch a flavour of inflections and vocal mannerisms. After all, I'm meant to be his character, I'm meant to be Obi-Wan Kenobi." While the accent's going ok, he's having one major problem. "The light sabres - man, if they were real, they'd be bloody lethal. The ones we're using are seriously dodgy as it is." So, if you see a man dressed in a white dressing gown struggling with a strip light, give him a wide berth.
