According to C4 teletext, Sam Morris (bassist from Alfie) is to play Freddie Mercury in 'The Making Of Bohemian Rhapsody. This is a special one off documentary due to be shown on BBC 2 in the summer.
I can't imagine what this is going to be like! I mean, are they going to have actors playing Brian, Roger and John too? It's going to be weird to watch. I guess they'll have to cast people to play Kenny Everett and Roy Thomas Baker if they are to tell the whole story of the creation and how it came to be the monster hit it was.
