Chris Rea was Russell Crowe's stunt double in Gladiator. Rea had to rest in bed for months beforehand to allow his huge muscles to atrophy down so he would pass as the then hunky Crowe.

As the high priest of the cult of Rea, you do know there is an element of ritual involved, a particular rude one Involving Aubergines and a plate of herrings rolled in oats, and it's nothing like the fishslapping dance as shown in Pythons flying circus.
All behind closed doors, at the Alter I. The ante room aboard the TURDIS.

The Land That Time Forgot is based upon an ill fated journey by Chris Rea. A failed Auberge Crystal left the TURDIS stranded in a strange forgotten land.
Rea was able to repair the TURDIS using a green Fruit Pastille, good enough for one journey before burning out. He then wrote the film script, changing just enough to avoid suspicion that he might own a secret time machine.

Ah, but his cover is well blown now, it's an open fact all over t' 'interweb fingy, that Chris has at least 2 time travelling machines, plus a lot of his exploits and his failures mostly with the TURDIS, polypropylene plastic isnt the best material, it's goes ferloppity when warmed, therefore the Auberge radiation leak out easily.
He has to wear lead lined Drago underpants to resist it's effects.

One day of the year is the anniversary of the Big Bang. Chris Rea knows which day it is and celebrates in secret each year.

Interestingly, scientists can still detect traces of Auberge Radiation that linger on from the Big Bang.
