A tribute to Gordon was aired last night in the UK, and, for those who missed it, our Greenheart has posted it to YouTube. It is fantastic!

It was lovely to see him as a young lad, then actor. I get itchy fingers when something new comes out and just have to do screencaps. *g*

It was great to see the pics of him when he was younger, and all through growing up all together. It's made me remember that I promised myself I'd watch some of his earlier work, too!

It was great to see all the early photos of him and his family. It was a shame that we didn't get to see Lewis Collins on there though, because they had Martin. There was only one of his sons on too.

Oh, why d'you say they didn't have LC on "because they had Martin"? To be honest I'd've thought they didn't have him on because he lives on the other side of the world now, whereas MS is on the spot for filming etc - surely not MS's fault (although I suppose therein lies RPS fic...*g*)! I think someone said that someone said (hmmn!) on the TV lounge that LC wasn't on because he declined to do it - I'd guess that was why GJ's other son wasn't on either.

I didn't mean it that way. I meant they had Martin on, so would have thought they would have had Lew as well. But then, as you say, he could have declined. It couldn't have been because he lives in the US now, as there are the widely used satellite links.

It gives a really good insight into his life and career. I didn't realise how much he had done.
