Some of you may recall a video interview with Bill Lake that I helped arrange a few years back. The interview was conducted by Arnaud Lanuque for his House of Asian Cinema Youtube channel (and to add to his vast archive of Hong Kong and other Asian film actor interviews).
One of the upshots of this was that Bill felt it was time to put it all down into written form and the result has just been released on Amazon.com. So please go ahead and grab a copy if you are a fan of 70s and 80s cinema. The book details Bill's upbringing in the UK and his career as a gunner in the Royal Artillery - the very vocation that led him to settle in Hong Kong. These days Bill is one of the foremost military historians in Hong Kong and South China, and it was our shared interest in this that led us to first meet via Gwulo.com. Go buy his book!
