AN EVENING WITH CHARLIE HAYLOCK

AT MILDEN PAVILION

On FRIDAY 8TH APRIL from 7pm for 7.30pm

The audience was treated to an informative and entertaining talk about Charlie and “The Dig’.

This is an intriguing and sometimes hilarious look behind-the-scenes in the making of the Netflix film "The Dig", a film based on a novel with the same title about the famous Sutton Hoo burial ship and the people involved.

Charlie will explain how a potential "scam" email from "The Dig" producer, turned out to be real, and followed by a phone call from Ralph Fiennes.

Charlie will show how Ralph Fiennes, who played Basil Brown, and the other "Suffolk" actors learnt their Suffolk accent . . . and not sound like West Country pirates ! Charlie will also explain the extreme lengths Ralph Fiennes took, not only to play Basil Brown . . . but to become Basil Brown.
