A couple of days ago, even though I already have the much superior video release with its brighter image and louder sound, I bought the DVD of WITCHFINDER GENERAL, especially because it contains the original two and a half minute trailer of the film from 1968.

I am almost certain that the voice-over on the trailer is that of Duncan Carse, the famous British arctic explorer and actor who was once the voice of Dick Barton on BBC radio and who passed away last month at the age of 90.

Now, I’ve heard and seen him on many radio and television programmes going back to the 1950’s, but I can’t recall him ever doing a voice-over on a trailer before except for this one…if it is him. Does anyone know if it is him?
