Paul Blake from Charlton Down near Dorchester has spent the best part of 50 years working as an actor. He’ll be best remembered though for a three week role he filmed in the summer of 1976 at Elstree studios near London. A role he took on the recommendation of his friend Anthony Daniels with whom he was working on Jackanory. That film was Star Wars. Anthony Daniels played C-3PO, and Paul Blake played Greedo in the Cantina scene, a bounty hunter shot by Han Solo. Four decades on, he’s still travelling the world talking about that film. Steve Harris went to meet him.
