Charles Dance doesn't just spend his time sitting in the row in front of me at the theatre with Penelope Wilton; no, sometimes he does a bit of acting as well. Like a guest spot on this week's Merlin . Actually I'm not crazy about Charlie Dancer, mainly after seeing him in a production of Long Day's Journey Into Night where he got out-acted by Paul Nicholls. By Paul Nicholls! But he was fine in this...

[SPOILERS] The celebrity guest stars have been eceptional this series, but I feel Charles Dance topped them all as the manipulative Aredian, a renowned Witchfinder summoned by King Uther (Anthony Head) after a servant witnesses a horse conjured in smoke from a campfire by Merlin (Colin Morgan)... Aredian swept into Camelot with a bundle of clichés in tow (giant black horses, a portable cage,...

Ths is my problem with British actor Charles Dance in his role as Vincent Price The Witchfinder General in tonight’s episode of Merlin on BBC1. It doesn’t matter what he appears in, be it Gosford Park, Phantom of the Opera, Bleak House or The Jewel in the Crown, there’s one scene, and one line that [...]

I was a bit disappointed a few years ago when the RSC production of Twelfth Night with John Lithgow as Malvolio didn't transfer to London, so I made sure to book for the second and final performance of Stories by Heart which, despite him having studied at LAMDA, is Lithgow's London stage debut. A one-man show he originated in New York and which by the sounds of it he's been reworking for a few years,...

Yes, of course I watched Nick Griffin on Question Time last night. But before that I went to Josephine Hart's Poetry Hour at the Royal Society, as part of the British Academy Literature Week. Kenneth Cranham, Charles Dance and Elizabeth McGovern read poetry by T.S. Eliot, Robert Browning, Sylvia Plath, Elizabeth Bishop, Philip Larkin, Kipling and Robert Frost. It was wonderful. One of my favourite...
