Episodes
Jamie begins his journey by tracking down the galaxy's most notorious bounty hunter, Boba Fett a.k.a Jeremy Bulloch. Jeremy tells Jamie how he got the Star Wars job, why he thinks Angelina would make a great Mrs. Fett and why Daniel Radcliffe would be a suitable replacement for a future spin-off film. After the chat, Jaime sees if Jeremy still has what it takes to return to that galaxy far far away by shooting an audition tape with him.
In this second installment, Jamie finds himself in sunny Blackpool where he tracks down Paul Blake, who famously portrayed bumbling bounty hunter, Greedo. Paul tells Jamie who really shot first and reveals his hopes for a future Greedo spin-off film; he then proves that he's not quite as useless as George Lucas would have people believe by auditions for a future role by shooting first and this time - hitting a target.
In Episode III, Ahmed Best a.k.a Jar Jar Binks talks Michael Jackson, the backlash and why he would never return to the Star Wars franchise. He also performs his former co-star Liam Neeson's famous 'Taken' monologue in the style of Jar Jar.
Jamie traveled to Wales Comic Con to meet the man inside Jabba The Hutt's tail - Yes, there was actually a man inside Jabba The Hutt's tail, and he also played the full body of Logrey the Ewok. Also in Wales was Rusty Goffe, who was responsible for bringing both a Jawa and a Gonk Droid to life in the original Star Wars. But do they both have what it takes to return to that galaxy far, far away?
Just in time for 'Rogue One: A Star Wars Story,' this episode see's Jamie traveling to the south London home of the original Darth Vader, Dave Prowse, where he interviews him in his garden shed, the Death Star of Croydon. It really was a day long remembered.
Each episode sees host Jamie Stangroom track down an unsung hero of Star Wars, find out how the movie's success changed their lives, and see if they've still got what it takes by making an audition tape for Disney.
