    As a kid Dave Prowse couldn’t be more famous to me; stalking along corridors as evil incarnate in the part of Darth Vader & stopping a whole generation of kiddies from being mown down in street as the Green Cross Code man. Rest in Peace, Bristol’s finest.https://youtu.be/CLeK1LKZKiI

        I have his autograph sitting on my shelf from when I was a kid before the Special Editions hit cinemas. It really hit me hard to learn he had passed on my birthday. He will be missed. 😢

        Always found it extraordinary that one man could play two such completely opposing roles - the epitome of evil and good. May the force be with him, always.

        And that George Lucas banned him from the official conventions.

        And of course, tiny though the role was, I always found him hugely memorable as Hotblack Desiato's bodyguard in Hitchhiker's Guide. RIP Mr Prowse.pic.twitter.com/Pn7Mj33Ml2

        I never knew he was from Bristol! I went to graduate school there and the city is very dear to me as a result.

        That’s sad news. I went to a Palitoy sponsored Return of the Jedi screening in Marble Arch in 1985, and Dave turned up as Darth Vader, so I count myself lucky to have heard the SIth Lord speaking in his original West Country accent.
