Colditz Tidbits and Colonel Preston love

[kateoftheangels]

Today's tidbit is brought to you from the depths of my admiration for Jack Hedley, Colditz (1972)'s dashing Colonel Preston.

This is an excellent resource on both the show and the actors, including photographs of its filming locations: Colditz on Wordpress.

And the resource links a rather darling article, from some women's magazine column Kathie in the Kitchen, featuring Jack and his wife and a recipe for veal in soured cream: Cooking with the S.B.O. Next week, how to make delicious strawberry cheesecake!

Gosh, he's even dressed like Preston at home, which makes his wife look like she stepped out of the TARDIs.

That is a very lovely resource, thank you for linking it! :D

It is a good resource, isn't it? I appreciated the attention to the real life historical detail, and the episode list has come in handy now that I am attempting to write for these lads.

I am also very appreciative of the cooking articles. You're so right, Hedley absolutely dresses like Preston even while off duty!
