Hi Phil,

Yes, I did spot it...
Fleming was Mac partner en double.
Have to remind you, though, that Mac Enroe, as a left handed, cannot play the Ripper...!

Amiti้s,
David

[Phil Carter]

A few more....

Danny La Rue....Pearly Poll
Stephen Fry....Walter Sickert
Beryl Reid.....Emma Smith
Daniel Radcliffe....Morganstone
John McEnroe.....Fleming (wonder if anyone will spot that little teaser...)
Michael Schumacher....Netley
Peter Ustinov....Konalov/Pedachenko
Roger Moore....PAV

Hello you all!

Just being curious;

Since there are loads of comedians here, so;

Which roles to Chico, Harpo and Groucho?!

All the best

If Anthony Hopkins is going to play Jack the Ripper, is there going to be a scene where we see him eat part of Kathy's kidney...with some fava beans and a nice Chianti? <hissing sound>

[Phil Carter]

If I were to pick a perfect Tumblety... it has to be Danny Kaye.

best wishes

Like the idea of Rowan Atkinson as Kozminski, can see him now.

But you need more suspects in this movie. I like Atkinson too but reckon he would be better as Ostrog & reckon you can fill most of the suspect cast from Bristish comedians (cue for the Blood Donor Sketch!) so being particularly depressed after the Man U result I jotted some down;

PAV - Mark LaMarr
Jo Barnett – Sid James
Neil Cream - ???
Monty Druitt – John Cleese (again)
Severin Klosowski (George Chapman) – Rory McGrath
Kosminski - ???
Maybrick - Leonard Rossiter
Hyam Hyams - Billy Connolly
Sickert - Michael Palin
Tumblety – Jimmy Edwards
Ostrog – Rowan Atkinson
Lewis Carroll - Jonathan Ross
James Kenneth Stephen – Tony Hancock
Frederick Deeming - Graham Chapman from the pythons
Jill the Ripper – Eddie Izzard

Vanessa as Liz great !!! MJK thats a problem..... not Julie tho

[j.r-ahde]

Hello you all!

Well, Robbie Coltrane already appeared in "From Hell"...

I woudl disagree about Vanessa Redgrave as Liz!

But Julie Christie wouldn't be a bad choice for MJK!

All the best
