I can’t help thinking her real affection is for the original Flash Gordon, which would have come out during her childhood and early adulthood:

Liz’s grand kids are all in their 30s. I can believe she would watch the movie with her great grand kids though.

" Seth, Seth! It’s Marvin! Your cousin, Marvin McFarlane! You know that plot for the Ted 3 movie you were looking for? Well read THIS! "

I can’t find a cite for it, but I remember reading an interview with BRIAN BLESSED, where he was saying that when he signed for the part they said “OK now let’s get you kitted out in some armour” and BRIAN said (bellowed) that it’s alright he had his own.

He’d done so many period pieces with the BBC that he had his own suit made.

She has 4 children.

John Hurt was amazing in it.

Caligula is an amazing character in the book, so I don’t doubt he’d do something great with it.
