February 2017 - news - Charles Dance

Mr Dance in the cast of a short film about the climate change
Actors Charles Dance and Jason Isaacs are taking a lead in The Climate Coalition's Show the Love campaign this February. They've given their time to star in a short film made by Ridley Scott Associates featuring the poetry of Anthony Anaxagorou and the music of Elbow.  The things we love could change forever due to climate change and that's the message of the video. On this edition of Nature's Voice Jane Markham talks to Fiona Dear from The Climate Change Coalition about the film and campaign and to the RSPB's conservation director Martin Harper about special places under threat.
A Bromley junior doctor is to share the limelight with a host of British stars with the release of a new film to raise awareness of climate change.
Tom Jackson, 31, is a member of the Lewisham and Greenwich NHS choir, who were invited to sing the soundtrack for the short film Love Song, which appears in cinemas this week.
The medics joined actors Charles Dance, David Gyasi, Jason Isaacs and Miranda Richardson to create a powerful three-minute film urging the British public to take action against climate change.
The film will be screened in Picturehouse Cinemas across the country from February 10 to 17 and widely across social media.
Most unsatisfactory presenter : me
London Critics' Circle awards, 2006
The London Critics’ Circle hosts its annual award ceremony in January, often at a swanky hotel. Reviewers are asked to make presentations, and 10 years ago I was one of them, presenting screenwriter of the year to Stephen Frears for The Queen. My memory of the event is that I tried a joke which was received with the same kind of stunned silence that greeted news of Queen Victoria’s death in the House of Commons.
But the most unfortunate part of the evening was that a problem in the kitchen meant that the dinner, but not the wine, was hours late. People were exuberant and convivial, but in an impatient and ill-tempered way. Charles Dance was seated at my table, and, fixing me with his diamond-hard, glittering gaze, asked if I had any connection with the event. “Oh yes,” I said. But my attempt to claim a co-celeb status with Mr Dance was thwarted when he flicked a contemptuous finger at his empty plate and said: “Well, then, perhaps you can tell me what’s happened to the food?”
Mr Dance will receive an award :
The Orange County festival will present its third annual U.K. Honors on Feb. 9 at the Bulgari Hotel in London. British photographer David Bailey and actors Miranda Richardson and Charles Dance will receive the icon awards, while Ken Loach’s “I, Daniel Blake” will be honored for achievement in global cinema.

Mr Dance in the cast of The Woman In White
JESSIE BUCKLEY will star in BBC television’s big blockbuster drama The Woman In White, based on Wilkie Collins’s melodramatic, Victorian-era page-turner about an outlandish murder plot.

The Woman In White is a popular mystery tale that’s been filmed by the BBC twice before (in 1966 and 1997) and has also been on the cinema screen and adapted for Radio 4.
Ms Buckley, who played Princess Marya Bolkonskaya in the hit War And Peace and is appearing in BBC1’s Taboo, along with Tom Hardy, will be joined in the Collins dramatisation by Charles Dance, Olivia Vinall, Joanna Scanlan and Henry Goodman. Key roles are going to Dougray Scott and Vicki Pepperdine.
