Global interest in Star Wars Auction
By Alison O'Reilly
The script is part of an online sale of the late David Prowse's memorabilia.
The Darth Vadar star died last year and his family donated 700 items of his Star Wars collection to charity.
Funds raised will be donated to Alzheimer's research after Prowse suffered with the disease towards the end of his life.
The auction is taking place in his hometown of Bristol today on May 4th, to mark 'May the force be with you'.
Hollywood star Samuel L Jackson tweeted about the auction.
