Just a simple re-edit of the existing scene, taking out repetitive and unecessary dialogue. I'd also alter the music to the Emperor's theme.
Clive Rivell only did the voice of the Emperor. The original emperor was an old women with chimppanze eyes. Why anyone would want a women and a chimp to be the Emperor is beyond me. Ian Mcdarmid also has a much cooler voice the Clive Rivell.
