The Dragon’s Call…
Did anyone else see Merlin on BBC1 at the weekend? I grew up on a staple diet of King Arthur and Robin Hood (albeit in books) and after the reinvention of Robin Hood as a loveable young rogue this time last year it was refereshing to see Camelot repainted with the same brush. In the first episode, “The Dragon’s Call”, young Merlin discovers his destiny by heeding the call from the last of the dragons imprisoned in the caves beneath the castle. Incidentally the dragon, whose voice is provided by John Hurt, was also modelled using the Elephant Man actor’s real life features.
All this reminded me that I recently talked with some dragons myself. We’ll be releasing interviews with ‘Captains of Industry’ every few weeks and for the moment check out what James Caan had to say to me on how to get on in business…
