Curiously enough, some ancient manuscripts (which were written in several different languages and ages), regarding topics like ancient history, armoury, distilling, occultism and legends, and politics are reputedly written by an author called “Halleck” (the first name shows several variations, depending on the original manuscript language).
We started to investigate the subject after the “Night of the Vampires in Paris” incident, where he and some of his associates were involved in what was later called by the only surviving agent “a macabre ritual”.

 TV:SCI FI Channel:DUNE:Gurney Halleck/P.H. Moriarity
During my visit to the FRANK HERBERT'S DUNE set in Prague I had a chance to sit down with P.H. Moriarity--the actor who is playing Gurney Halleck--in his trailer for about an hour and a half.
P.H. has an excellent grasp of his character, he absolutely looks the part of Gurney (among other things, he used to be a boxer), and from what I've seen so far, his performance is excellent.
I have to admit that although I have a soft spot for Patrick Stewart's portrayal of Gurney in David Lynch's DUNE movie, I actually think P.H. is much more suited to the part.

Later, he spars with Gurney Halleck, with the knives and those cool personal sheilds.
Basically, the shields work in that they keep out anything moving quickly, but if you go slow, they wont register it as an attack and so if you slide the blade in slowly, you can get through.
Then they travel to Arrakis, and the only people who can pilot the ships are the space navigators, who nobody is allowed to see, and so we get a nice little CG animatation of then.
