AN 'EMPIRE' AT 40: ACCESS DENIED!


Brave Artoo gets an unexpected jolt whilst accidently connecting to a power terminal, as our heroes escape attempts from Cloud City continue in this memorable scene for the droid that was originally script-conceived but unused for the original Star Wars in 1977.

Another selection of behind the scenes images from filming undertaken at Elstree during Summer 1979. Once again, the filmmakers manage to make ingenious use of the restricted amount of Bespin sets created via alternate angles and redressing. 






Anthony Daniels suits-up for close-up shots of the damaged Threepio.

A deleted scene moment that made its way into an early teaser trailer.
