For risk of being fired as the Orlando Bloom mod...but, I liked that one! It would've been perfect if it had an archer Lancelot pic though

I adore him in glasses Thanks, Pao

[Lady Dragonair]

I love that one with the glasses. Yummy!

[Paolo]

...Hee.

I love that video. Shane from Westlife and Ioan make a lethal combination

Hee. I liked Shane too.

From Very Annie Mary:

With Rachel Griffiths (Brenda from Six Feet Under)


With Matthew Rhys, Ioan's best friend.

He was in that video?! Now I have a stronger reason to watch that video I didn't even notice! Well, I wasn't looking then.

Lol. He looks so cute in VAM, with the eyebrows.

So, here's snippets of the interview I promised a page ago. I don't know where they transcribed it from though. This is about King Arthur:

I heard that you were a bit upset there were no snogs in the script...
Of course I was upset! When I read the script I was like, "Fantastic! Where's the romance bit...? Oh, there isn't one."

Did you try and convince the director to give you a sex scene?
Every day. He was having none of it.

Was there a testosterone overload on the set?
Yeah, but I was the quiet one -- all the other actors are big and burly, and then there was me sitting there quietly singing Welsh hymns.

Who looked the best in armor?
Not me. I looked stupid. I just couldn't find one that worked. (We beg to disagree, Ioan!)

What's the most difficult sex scene you ever had to do?
One with Stephen Fry for Wilde. We were both nervous. We sat there in our boxers and we were like, "Er...hi..." and then had to get it on. Sweaty. Not nice. I also had to fake masturbation once with a sock over my old chap.

Do we get to see your bum in this film?
No.

Would you describe it for me?
Well, its very tanned because I sunbathe naked. [laughs]

You play a lot of costumed roles -- but have you ever "dressed up" for love?
I haven't dressed up but I did take the Hornblower costume home...

The worst thing about wearing armor is...
Going to the loo.

5th century underpants are...
Nonexistent!

Yay! Did you comply?
No!

Wimp. [sigh] ...I'd rate my weapon skills out of 10...
10.

My best trick with a sword is...
Opening a beer bottle.

Not quite what I meant, but good answer. Oh God, I can't ask you this question. They made me. I can't look at you while I ask! Ahem...which do you prefer? 'Long thrusts' or 'short stabs'?
[looks very serious] A bit of both. It depends on what's asked of me. [laughs]

[Paolo]

That's understandable. Westlife were hogging all the shots.

Oh May, thanks for posting that! Hee. This makes me like him even more.

I'm guessing that he played one of Oscar Wilde's conquests. Damn. I have to see that movie. And Hee. His 'old chap'. I smell a thread title coming along.

[supergirlhero]

He played Oscar Wilde's gay lover, Pao Another reason for me to watch that film other than Orlando.

Will you be hunting for a VCD/DVD of that one? I'm going to start doing so.

[supergirlhero]

I've been looking for one since two years ago
