Hugh Spight
Actor
In 1982 Hugh Spight spent six weeks at Elstree Studios filming in Star Wars: Return of the Jedi. But he believes his chance at fame was shot down when his name was misspelled during the credits, renaming him Hugh Spirit. Spight played several roles in the film - a Gamorrean and a character called Prune face. Originally trained in ballet, and after having a 20 year career as a dancer,which included working with some of the top companies in the UK and Europe. Hugh made it on to the Star Wars set at Elstree studios after he was spotted next door on the set of Jim Henson's movie The Dark Crystal, where he developed and performed several leading characters whilst working as a movement Coordinator on full body puppets. In "Star Wars "Hugh's biggest role is as the Gamorrian guard who escorts Hans Solo into captivity.( He dines out on the fact, that he had a fight with Harrison Ford ... and won!) He said: "We were shooting in Jabba's Palace. those scenes I was the one who had my hand on the shoulder of Harrison Ford. "We had to take him down to the dungeon.''He put up quite a fight, in fact, one guard (Swee Lim) fell down the stairs and refused to do the shot, so Simon Williamson took his place. Hugh has also portrayed several roles in Classic Doctor Who. One in particular role includes the iconic black Dalek in the Seventh Doctor story Remembrance of the Daleks with Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred.
