Or is he from one of those indigenous Peruvian tribes that speaks the King’s English?
Edit: A friend of mine pointed out that he’s also not a South American spectacled bear.
What the fuck, Michael Bond?
Am I the only want who wanted a Paddington movie like the old show where he’s stop motion and everyone else is paper drawings? That’s what I think of when I think of Paddington.
They did one where they animated Paddington doing an almost move-for-move copy of Gene Kelly’s famous titular dance in Singin’ in the Rain, which was pretty damn impressive for the 1970s.
Loved the look of it and the voice. Didn’t get to watch much of it growing up. 😕
The voice was the late, great Michael Hordern. I can’t think of something he was in where he wasn’t delightful.
And if you ever want to hear an amazing take on Gandalf equal to Ian McKellen’s, he played him in the BBC radio version. (Incidentally, Peter Jackson must have been a fan of that adaptation because Ian Holm, who he cast as Bilbo, played Frodo in the radio version.)
