In the film 'Tales of the Fourth Dimension' Richard O'Brien plays a pivotal role as the Time Master who inhabits a strange cosmic time plane and manipulates the lives of mere mortals through time-warping trickery.

It is ironic that Richard should be such a natural as the Time Master since he couldn't read a clock till the age of 12. In fact at school his teacher would ask him the time and send him out in the hall until he could answer. There, he'd simply ask the first person who passed if they had the time, and then return to the classroom!

Richard, born in Cheltenham in 1942 is best known for his cult film 'The Rocky Horror Picture Show' and as the presenter of the Crystal Maze for four years. In recent years he has also been a hit in the stage production of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang where he played the sinister Child Catcher.

As a fan of Sci-Fi and as a supporter of independent film makers, Richard was happy to take on the role of theTime Master and Richard's many fans will not be disappointed by his 'masterful' performance.
