VERY RARE Lucky Star Wars fan visits the Set Of Empire Strikes Back meeting Mark Hamill and R2D2 

That kid looked absolutely terrified of Chewie. Little did he know the real monster was right in front of him.

That poor kid was sitting next to a dirty, hairy monster and on the other side of him was Chewbacca.

When Obi-Wan said he felt a great disturbance in the force, he was talking about Jimmy Saville

Man, Mark Hamill is so cool. He was game to make this kid's day.

Mark Hamill is such a cool and lovely guy.

Admiral Ackbar to Daniel: "IT'S A TRAP!"

Jim was a sick pervert. Hopefully, this kid was not abused by him.

Emperor palpatine wouldn’t even like Savile

The presenter seems like a humble down to earth guy who loves children and would do anything to them

Jimmy sicko saville ruined the video

Like Anakin,Jimmy’s lightsaber has ruined the lives of many younglings

Remarkable footage. That bit with the picnic basket could almost have been a deleted scene from Empire. Mark is so friendly and laid back, a truly professional actor. Chewbacca coming out "naked" was an unexpected surprise, (i mean for him being there if at all).😄😆

This kid will be 53 now. What a cool memory for a star wars fan of that time. Apart from the Saville meeting of course.

‘Good news kid, you get to meet Luke, R2 and Chewie!’ ‘What’s the bad news?’ ‘…………….’

Really heartwarming to see Mark Hamill stay in character and act so kindly towards the nervous kid, Savile notwithstanding. Would have meant the world to me to think Luke Skywalker was my friend at that age.

Fair play to Mark Hamill, he went above and beyond to make that little boys day. He proved himself to be an absolute gent

The Imperial March wasn't for Chewie, it was for Saville.

I’m never seen this. 30+ years watching everything Star Wars related. This is def rare.

A picnic with Luke Sywalker on Dagobah would be the coolest ever Star Wars story to tell all your friends at school apart from the seedy Saville 'eating little girls' comment ending...

Its impossible to enjoy this rare amazing behind the scenes of Star Wars when its bookended with the child monster Jimmy Saville, the end when he is talking to the boy totally creeps me out. It shows how vulnerable and trusting these children were and how easy it was for him to prey on them. Shame on all those people who covered for him and turned a blind eye. It took guys like Johnny rotten to standup and say the truth but they were shouted down.

Chewbacca entering in darth vader theme, that was rare to digest.

This watches like a fever dream I had when I was 5, I loved Star Wars so much, it's great at 50 to go back and watch something like this, I dreamt of it as a child

Saville was the real Phantom Menace

Whoever delibrately played Darth Vader's theme to warn the kid there's a monster nearby is probably an unsung hero. Maybe saved him from being abused.

Just point on the droid where the scary man touched you.

Mark Hamill was wonderful to that young boy.

I hope this kid just knows how damn lucky he was to do this

The kid would have been safer with Vader during order 66 than sat next to fkn Saville!!!

That lad got to visit one of the darkest most terrifying domains in the galaxy... And he got to visit the Star Wars set!

I've been a star wars fan since the OT and have never seen this before. What the lucky little sob.

'Have you ever heard the tale of Darth Jimmy The Nonce?'

From ChatGPT: “Meeting Mark Hamill on the set of “The Empire Strikes Back” influenced Daniel Fleetwood’s career choices. Daniel Fleetwood pursued a career in the film industry, likely inspired by his memorable experience. He became a storyboard artist, working on various projects within the industry, which reflects the significant impact that his childhood experience had on his professional path.”

Jimmy saville had a lightsaber of his own when they returned to the studio. Fully extended. Chewie ' doesn't eat little boys' but jimmy does .

Fixing that little boys dreams to come true. What a lovely man uncle Jimmy is . A true national treasure in every sense of the word

4:28 I loved the clip that mark played for the kid. It really paints the picture.

I clicked on this video, hoping to watch a wholesome, warm video only to be greeted by Savile in the opening few seconds. Christ.

Great video!!! Thank you so much for posting it. I have never seen it.

Jimmy was the Herbert version of Obi Wan

I'd say the kid was even luckier to meet Jimmy Saville and walk away with his balloon knot still intact.

Luke (Mark) saying do you want an R2 back in England… when they are in England filming, meanwhile R2 was built by English people with an Englishman (Kenny Baker) inside. Proud of our contribution to these amazing films.

A picnic on Dagobah…heck yeah.

I came here for the Savile comments and y’all did not disappoint.

Making Chewbacca give this kid a medal after just getting stiffed in Star Wars might be the cruelest thing Jimmy Savile did.

Rest of the world viewers: oh wow what a day! UK viewers: oh god no!

I don’t remember R2 being able to spawn in full picnic baskets in the movies

This reminds me of the video the OT cast did with Warwick Davis (Wicket the Ewok) when he was a boy on the set of Return of the Jedi. Even Harrison Ford played along for Warwick's enjoyment.

Jimmy has his own light saber at the ready.

This reminds me of Bad luck Bryan: Gets to meet two of the most iconic characters in a massive franchise It's on jimmy savilles show

I'm sure that the little boy enjoyed his day out.

So sweet of a period of time in history great kid too!

Lucky? That is a serious understatement.

"6:20" says it all.

The 70’s must have been Glorious years. I was born in 86, but can only imagine the magic of that era when Star Wars came out

Yes he was very lucky Jim didnt fix him.

He put a smile on the faces of many children, and I don't believe what the media say about him.

I didn't know who this interviewer was until I read the comment section after seeing this video, and when he said you like to eat boys???? that creeped me out.

WOW! That clip from R2 was amazing!

One of the most exciting things to be on the tele

One second in: Oh no.

They showed the SMALLEST clip from Empire, & that's when I lost it 🤣🤣🤣

Forget about the Savile bookends, what an amazing and one off, one of a kind experience for that kid! How many people can truly say they have been on "Dagobah"? And on top of that met Luke Skywalker in full character and costume! (Oh, and R2!). Watching it makes me wonder if he maybe saw or glanced the Yoda puppet (unlikely probably hidden away from prying eyes). And also I wonder if this kid got any photos and also where is he now!

Wow , that literally is the luckiest kid ever !

Jimmy Saville was so kind on making kids dreams come true. We all make mistakes.👍

Mark Hamill was always and always will be class.

Never forget how the BBC covered for Saville

That kid was very lucky , no way would this happen today.

Besides the obvious that we know about the host, Daniel was a very lucky boy and I wonder if he's still about, I think this clip is incredible, not scene this before and it really is an amazing find.

" I am getting..........NONCE!

Everyone’s talking about that sicko Saville, but wow this kid is lucky to have actually met Mark Hamill in-character as Luke Skywalker. As in, the guy we all saw in the movie itself. Costume and everything

I would have shit myself meeting Mark Hamill (Luke), Chewbacca, etc. as a kid. Im so glad I got to bring Star Wars characters to my house for my kids to meet growing up being an artist for Star Wars. I never dreamed Id have my own Stormtrooper costume, etc.

For those of you who are curious about some of the comments below, Jimmy Savile is the host of the show you're watching here called Jim'll Fix It. The show was a smash hit in the U.K. During his lifetime there were rumors that he was doing some pretty unsavory sexual things with small children but no one actually finished that particular investigation because he was, nationally speaking, beloved and considered a national treasure. So everyone turned a blind eye. After his death, however, 219 victims were discovered in a span from 1955 until 2009. The stories are horrific and include open access to an entire school.

Saville was a C U Next Tuesday, but the things they arranged for some of the kids that wrote in were amazing.

4:28 - Here's a clip of the movie. The clip is 1 second.

I miss the days when star wars is full of honor & dignity unlike the Disney sequel trilogy.

That little boy had no idea how close he was to the Dark Side.

Wow, never knew this existed!!! So awsome to see!

How awesome that must've been to actually be on the set of the Dagobah System!

Thought this was a nice wholesome video then jimmy reared his head

I must have wrote that letter 100 times…. Good job i was an ugly kid

Luke mentioned the pub scene with all the creepy crawlies and there was one waiting for him when he got back home!

Spooky coincidence, I’m parked outside Kenny Bakers house in Ashton, Preston at the moment. Did you know R2D2 came from Lancashire?

wow, i would have freaked... can't top that!! no matter what you do in life..

Slaying them younglings

So good Mark was in character. Such a shame those studios are being demolished

This is what happens when you mix A.I. to make a short story about Star Wars on Earth. Lukes First Date and the interviewer was the Emperor. The kid was in horror realizing he was still stuck in OZ at the end......still epic footage from a classic era.

Shopkeeper: Take this offer, but beware it carries a terrible curse! Daniel: Ooh, that's bad. Shopkeeper: But it comes with a free trip to meet Mark Hamill on the set of the new Star Wars movie! Daniel: That's good. Shopkeeper: The trip requires you to meet Jimmy Savile. Daniel: That's bad? Shopkeeper: But you also get to meet Chewbacca. Daniel: That's good! Shopkeeper: But you'll have to spend some alone time with Jimmy in his green room after shooting. [Daniel looks puzzled] Shopkeeper : ...That's bad. Daniel: Can I go now?

Making kids dreams come true! What a guy.

I wonder if that kid still remembers this special day!😊

Mark Hamill is such a nice guy.

I remember a spoof of The Empire Strikes Back, done by Cracked Magazine, in which they referred to Dagobah as Doggy Bag 😂😂😂

This is amazing

Why did they play the imperial march theme when chewbacca walked on?

6:01 Darth Bacca enters the scene

that engkish boy so lovely and well mannered what an angel

"There is a tremor in the Force" as soon as I saw Savile

Sir Jim did a lot of good which people too quickly overlook.

What a clip!

I didn't even know they did this! SO CUTE!

No wonder it’s very rare!

I wasn’t born when The Original Trilogy came out but seeing when it came out in Re Release I in 1997 I thought it was a new movie and coming back home after seeing all three original films my dad Bought Star Wars on Tape I said isn’t the movie still in Theaters and I put it in and I later said it’s different because the Jabba The Hut wasn’t in A New Hope and Neither was Boba Fett and Return of The Jedi had different music like Rock and Roll in Jabba’s Palace and The Victory Celebration wasn’t in it too so I thought this wasn’t the Star Wars movie I didn’t remember seeing until I later found out the movie came out 20 years ago and 27 years before I was born so that was to me a surprise.
