Robert Carlyle/Dr Nicholas Rush Thunk/Appreciation thread

[telpethoniel]

Oh yay!! first pic of what he'll look like (or similar)

[Commander Aegir]

He's going to be really good in Universe. Its made even better because it really annoyed Russell T Davies that Stargate got and Dr Who didn't *chuckles*

[Lahela]

After reading the interview linked on the GW front page, I'm even more glad that Stargate won that battle As much as I love Doctor Who, I just don't see it stretching the actors all that much - it's a bit too cheerful and uncomplicated, if that makes sense. RC needs a role he can sink his teeth into

Hmmm... I'm sure I posted here earlier today... Wonder if I got modded for mentioning the teaser... all I said was he looked great *shrugs*

Anyway, there's a slightly longer version of that article mentioned on the GW front page here.

The extra couple of paragraphs deal more with his decision to take the role (spoilered just in case):

Spoiler:

As for the idea of doing a series which could potentially run for… well, who knows for how long when you're talking about Stargate? The better part of a decade? Carlyle says that he's spent most of his career doing "gritty, hard-hitting stuff" and he thinks the time has come to make a change.

"A point came about a year ago where I thought, 'I've kinda had it. I've kinda done that,'" he says. "'I need something different to keep this process new.' And I went to Los Angeles and spoke to some television companies, some stuff was offered to me, and this was the one that I liked the best. And to be honest, if you had told me that before, I'd have said you're crazy. Because it's not a world that I'd have thought I could inhabit. But [it was] suddenly a drama opening up in space, [and] in the past that was something that was slightly missing from the genre."

Oops! Forgot to mention, there's a huuuuuuuuuuge version of the cast pic here

I'm getting so excited!!! The MGM countdown number two ends in a few minutes (for me, at least... I understand it's different in different timezones ) so I'm praying for a new pic

Robert C usually was rumored that he was pick up for a role of Doctor Who before BBC tap on David Tennant and Matt Smith as 10th and 11th Doctors, Now Robert finally is taken in into SGU as Dr. Rush.

It was Bookman Old Style. I always spend so much time trying to choose a font - so many of them look terrible or are unreadable at that size That one is far from perfect, but it's only icon number one
