"The way to fame is a hard one. You must suffer,
and be the butt of jealousy and ill-informed criticism; it is a lonely matter.
One just has to go on doing what you think is right, and doing your duty:
whatever others may say or think; and that is what I try to do."
"Once again I am
the bad man.....but I don't mind."
B.L.Montgomery.
The Specialist 'Monty' Look-alike providing the most authentic
Field Marshal or General Montgomery available for Film, TV and Theatre work, WW2 and '40s Themed Shows & Special Events
at any location. We also have a 1943 Jeep in British 21st Army Group markings available for making that grand entrance at
your corporate event.
To ensure the highest standard
of authenticity all items of Monty's uniforms and clothes, from his early days onwards, right through the 8th Army &
21st Army Group days and his War Office period, are researched with the utmost attention to historical detail. They are then
accurately recreated using either genuine period clothing and insignia, or only the very highest quality reproductions from
the very best of suppliers. So you won't find me wearing post-war '49 pattern Battledress when it should be '37
pattern, I am dedicated to providing the most accurate portrayal of Monty and
nothing less will
do!
