00:00I kind of thought it was a low-budget film to begin with.
00:06It was just like another job except you look weird.
00:09I had lunch with Alec Guinness.
00:11We used to go in and sort of practice the fight together,
00:13like kids fighting in the back garden.
00:16And I was like, look at this, what's going on?
00:19How many actors can say that they've got their own action figure?
00:22And you become friends.
00:23I just treat everybody the same.
00:25I said, George, how do you want me to play this?
00:27He said, well, play it like they do in the movies.
00:30Not everything's going to stay in the film.
00:32And I was quite angry and hurt.
00:34It was just a nightmare.
00:35The only thing that really got me out of this house
00:36was really going to do this convention.
00:39He said, I'll pay you £300.
00:41Well, doing what? He said, sign an autograph.
00:44I said, are you for real?
00:47My face was in the movie, you know.
00:48Jeremy's got a bucket on his head. What's that about?
00:50Well, that's purely because it's Boba Fett.
00:52I can't say any more than that. It's not my fault.
00:55Fans all over the world are generally just brilliant.
00:59You made a slight look.
01:00I said, yes, I was waiting for lunch.
01:03I really didn't have that driving ambition to succeed.
01:06Maybe that's where I've been going wrong.
01:08You don't want to be classified just as an X-wing pilot.
01:12It's a piece of us, or it's a piece of, you know,
01:14what somebody's life is.
01:16I was in with the helmet on,
01:18finally stopping with George Lucas.
01:19He said, welcome aboard.
01:21It's not a big role, but I think you'll have some fun.
01:24You kind of just go, you know, move on, you know.
01:27As the San Trooper says, move along.
