At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

This originally formed part of the traditional 'begging segment' at the end of the latest Mr Deity episode (Mr Deity & The Marriage) but due to popular opinion, he decided to release it in its own right.

(Edit: Oh, and yes that
is Dave Prowse without his Darth Vader gear. Good luck unseeing that next time you watch Star Wars!)

You mean you kept your gaze on Vader's face throughout?
Sorry, meant to include this one as well (it's a particular favourite of mine):

Apparently he got the nickname "Darth Farmer" by the rest of the cast. He's actually a really nice and genuine bloke; we met and spoke to him when he participated in a regular sci-fi/collector's convention at the Birmingham NEC several years ago. You could spot at a glance why he got the part - the man is immense! He was seated near to Peter "Chewbacca" Mayhew and between them they practically dominated the arena. Presumably they had to duck to get through the front doors.
Another bit of trivia: in the classic twist scene of The Empire Strikes back ("No, I am your father!"), the only member of the cast who knew what that reveal line was going to be was James Earl Jones, and then only when it came time for his dubbing session. After the initial exchange, still in the final cut of the scene ("Obi-Wan never told you what happened to your father." "He told me enough! - He told me you killed him!"), Mark Hamill was directed to severely overplay his reaction to Prowse's original line, which was "No - Obi-Wan killed your father!" Now keep that in mind and watch Alec Guinness's face in the scene in the original Star Wars when Luke asks how his father died.
