Third Extra on the Left Cast for PRIDE AND PREJUDICE!
We are getting a little silly now, but we found the article entertaining and thought our readers would as well.
A Pensioner has become one of the first people in the county to win a part as an extra on the silver screen.
Peter Hallam (73) has been chosen to be an extra in the remake of Jane Austen’s novel Pride and Prejudice, starring alongside Keira Knightley.

Mr Hallam has sported large, curly mutton chop sideburns for years , which are appropriate for the Regency period - but he will be without them for the filming.
“We made Grandad get them shaved off last time he went to the barber,” said Bront??.
“We didn’t expect him to be doing any filming.”
There are some problems with the granddaughter’s name containing high-ASCII characters that do not transfer to the web (thus the question marks). We wonder: could her name be Brontë? What delicious irony! She should get to be an extra on general principles.
