30 minute UK Mark Hamill interview

Some hilarious bits in this. "I'm sick of it", says Hamill of Star Wars at one point. The interviewer starts by calling Star Wars a "space fairy story", which is accurate enough but the way he says it is hilarious. He also describes Hamill as having "proved to me that modesty is not counted as one of his major virtues". That's completely unfair, by the way. If anything it's the interviewer who comes off badly.

Oddly this is filmed in black and white. Even the UK could manage colour film in 1977, so it's a bit of a mystery.
