"Boris brings who at the French Embassy for Bastille Day ? The King! The King Tywin "
remember :
“If Donald Trump enters the White House and Boris goes into number 10 Downing Street we’ll have to find another planet to live on. [Boris] is very entertaining, but as a Prime Minister? No.”

Interview in The Times

in 2005 :
"Age difference doesn't matter. But one has to consider children. When you get to a certain age, there's more sand in the bottom of the egg-timer than at the top. It's nice to feel you have some guarantee you're going to be around when your kids are in their teens, and the chances are that you might not. I adore my own kids, but I'm not a great lover of children. I don't go 'ooh-aah' at babies."
"Outing you, #charlesdance, for saying the most irritating thing elderly new fathers can say when they already have children from Their past life. You might feel hopeless under the spell of your never-felt-about-the-first-kids 'paternal pull' but keep it to yourself. #times2"
It’s patronising to assume sex stops at 40 : Charles Dance, 69, on late fatherhood, fancying Nicola Sturgeon — and taking his shirt off
GAME of Thrones star Charles Dance has revealed he has a crush on Nicola Sturgeon.
The actor disclosed that after meeting the "feisty" First Minister during the 100th anniversary commemorations of the Battle of the Somme, both he and Harry Potter star Jason Isaacs fell for Scotland's most powerful woman.
Along with The Tudors actress Joely Richardson, the pair plead to be allowed to come live in Scotland when backstage in the green room, following the actors concluding poetry readings for the event
Speaking to The Times, Charles said: "We met Nicola afterwards and Jason and I both agreed that she is, to put it mildly, not unattractive.
"We all of us - Jason, Joely and I - said: 'Can we come and live in Scotland please?' And she said: 'Aye, I'll get you a passport, don't worry about it.'
"I think she's a feisty, terrific woman.
"She seems to still have this integrity which is a quality that, from a naive observer's point of view, very few politicians have."
Though best known to younger generations as the ruthless Tywin Lannister on HBO's hit show Game of Thrones, Dance has graced our screens for more than three decades. 
His latest big screen appearance sees him play the straight foil of a "rather cynical English dean" against Kristen Wiig and Melissa McCarthy in the remake of Ghostbusters.
Speaking on male fans who have criticised the all-female reboot, he said: "They're talking about it as if somebody's demolished Shakespeare or Dostoevsky. It isn't. It's a piece of light entertainment and the girls might well be funnier than the men."

Charles at Wimbledon 2016...in the royal box

"Charles Dance (Tywin Lannister) attended Wimbledon Championships At The All England Lawn Tennis Club In #Wimbledon, yesterday in Southwest London! 🙌 {July"
Charles Dance - Game of Thrones' Tywin Lannister to many people - said he had 'every confidence' in Murray, adding: 'I'm gunning for him, of course I am.'
Asked about how the Scot would cope with having the hopes of a nation on him, Dance said: 'What pressure, to have to play with that. It's bad enough playing in this arena at this point, it's tough, and all that pressure as well.'
The 69-year-old revealed he had been hooked on the latest series of Game of Thrones, saying: 'It's fantastic, it's the most sensational television and I was very lucky to be a part of it.'
But Game Of Thrones star Charles Dance was firmly on the side of progression, saying: "Oh, I'm a modernist. Yes, absolutely. Either Murray Mound - or it's in my sitting room, or it's here."
