| I don't think Drake would have been particularly good casting physically for Miles in "Forum" who is supposed to be quite physically imposing. I think Drake was about 5'7 or 5'8" but with terrific stage presence seemed taller. Some of those other roles, especially Frederik I think he would have been outstanding. | |

| I hadn't realised he was that small, although there might have been mileage in a small Miles. Perhaps the mind would have wondered just what part of Miles is so "gloriousous"..... | |

| Drake played the uncle-King in Richard Burton’s Hamlet. Just being who he was, with that sexy, somewhat wicked air, he brought a lot to a character that needs that kind of starpower. | |
