What was the name of the documentary that was shown in the UK on “Premier” and had the b-roll of Dave Prowse life cast?? I can’t for the life of me remember the name of it. Pretty sure Brian Muir was in the doc too.

Argh… that has bugged me most of the afternoon, mate. I wanted to say ‘The Men Behind The Mask’… but that wasn’t right.
 

You’re referring to this doc, Jamie?:-

and a couple more images, here: https://vaderbase.com/entstehung.html ?
 

^ If so, I think it may be Sky TV’s 1999 ‘Making of the Myth’ documentary (narrated by Anthony Daniels).
