#CenturyCity dates back to silent movie and #DickTurpin star, #TomMix. In 1925, he sold his ranch to #WilliamFox, founder of #FoxFilmCorporation, who would use it as a backlot before merging into #20thCenturyFox in 1935. #photography #americana #wa #california #architecture #californication #canon80d #colorphotography #history #photos #trivia #funfacts #hollywood

Dick Turpin was down our neck of the woods last week. Week, I say Dick Turpin, it was Noel Fielding as the eponymous highwayman. Filming all week in Charlestown. Wonder how much they got done, the weather was dire.

Personally I’d pay good money to see him recreate the Adam Ant video for Stand And Deliver - although Diana Dors is probably past her best, a stunt double may be required (one that’s alive at least).

Filming is currently underway for #Horseface, starring #NoelFielding.

The #AppleTVPlus comedy-adventure series follows #DickTurpin, the most famous, but least likely of highway robbers, whose success is defined mostly by his charm, showmanship and great hair.

Richard Carpenter was also behind the 70s #DickTurpin series where I got my first contact with #DavidDaker & his Captain Spiker.

I didn't realize the brilliance of #ChristopherBenjamin's comedic skills until I saw it again in my adult years but Sir John Glutton is 1 of the highlights when seen altogether now.

Also forever facepalming at not connecting his being at a con re: Dr Who to his having been Glutton as well until after meeting him, or I'd have gushed at him.
