For his 40th Birthday tribute, Richard is being serenaded by a blonde bombshell from the past. Who could it be?
Let's see... there were quite a few good looking blonde castmates from his time on MI-5 / Spooks...
Perhaps Genevieve O'Reilly as Sarah Caulfield?
No. Definitely a bomb, even a shell, but not a bombshell.
What about Hermione Norris as Ros Meyers?
While we do like her, still not bombshelly enough.
I know! How about Miranda Raison as Jo Porter!
A bombshell yes, but no, it's not her!
Then it must be...Sophia Myles as Beth Bailey!
Lovely choice, but wrong again I'm afraid.
You are so close... While she was not on the cast of Spooks,
she could actually qualify as a Spook!
It is the beautiful,
but long gone
but long gone
Marilyn Monroe!
How is this possible, you may well ask?
Well, in the modern world of technology, nothing is impossible!
August 22nd is an auspicious day in the world of RA fandom, but it is also famous for another reason. It is the same date as King Richard III of England was killed in battle on Bosworth Field. Perhaps because of this tie to such a famous namesake, Richard has always been keenly interested in this period of history.
If you would like to support Richard's goal of bringing to the screen a new biopic of England's much maligned ruler King Richard III don't forget to sign this petition.

Lovely post Phylly, but is that your voice?
(PS: Just watched a clip with a very blonde Daniela Denby-Ashe talking about how much she liked working with RA ... nice :) )
@Mulubinba -- Yup. That's me alright! It was very difficult to get it in synch with the video, but I finally gave up. Oh well, I still don't really know what I am doing with vidding.
Oh please, send me the link for that interview -- sounds really good! :)
I'm blonde, will i do?
Wonderful birthday song, Phylly! You are great !!! You can easily replace Marilyn Monroe ;o)
Haha, this really cracked me up! You're very creative and talented.
I adore your video!The perfect birthday tribute for our RA!
You have a great voice!
Delightful - a perfect humourous birthday tribute. The RA supporters thank you!
The blonde Daniela clip is from a BBC presentation called "The Story of Costume Drama" (hope I have that accurately). And blonde DDA is adorable, nothing like her solemn Margaret persona.

@CDoart -- Oh my! High praise indeed! My impression was a bit off in the singing department but as for the looks -- well... let's not go there! :S

Oh yes, I remember that clip now. DDA really does seem like a sweetheart!
Sweet sweet vid - and yes she was a bombshell.

Your post reminds me of Lucas's comment in the first episode of season 9: "Don't even get me started on blondes!"
@Alfie -- Thanks! Hope you had a great day too!
