Patrick Stewart, considered for the Star Trek Next Generation role.

July 23, 2011...Roy to appear at the
Mid-Atlantic Nostalgia Convention,
September 23-25, 2010. The venue is The Marriott Hotel, Hunt
Valley, Maryland USA. Go to their website for more details. Roy
is also slated tentatively to appear at a convention in Burbank,
California on October 9, 2010. That event is said to be managed
by David Ellerbee. If you have more info, please send it along to
us. May 11, 2010 - The Other Man - found?
I ran across this by contacting
a poster on
imdb for the
movie, The Other Man, which seems to have quite a following among female
fans of Roy Thinnes. You can find a DVD-R version of this film by going
to this site:
http://www.robertsvideos.com
Just type in The Other Man in the search box and there is a listing for
the video for 19.95.
I am not in any way endorsing this listing, but providing information
for those fans out there who are seeking some kind of recording of this
film, which, by the way, I have never seen. This is kind of stop-gap
measure until we can collectively convince NBC Universal, the owners of
the original film, to release it on DVD. If enough people write, perhaps
they would consider a limited DVD release.
Best wishes,
Jim
PS Still working on the financing for The Invaders film. Trying other
avenues while waiting for the first. Keep in mind that in the world of
film financing, regardless of how well connected you are, it can take
upwards of decades to get from script to screen. That's the nature of
the game and I've been in it since 1978 and have been seeking funding
for The Invaders in particular since 2001.
