A behind-the-scenes look at Kershner (with viewfinder) on the Hoth hangar set as it’s being constructed in the Star Wars Stage, with producer Gary Kurtz. Note the panorama of the set in progress.

On Monday, May 7, Carrie Fisher returned to London. To complete the hangar set on the Star Wars Stage, Welch ordered a night shift for one week, with more than 100 craftsmen, including 59 carpenters. That evening, the Kurtz family gave a baby shower for Mark and Marilou Hamill.

“The shower took place at the Kurtz home in Buckinghamshire, a fine, rambling homestead,” Arnold writes. “Mark stood up well to the sentimentality of the occasion while Marilou presided gracefully over the opening of gifts. Then came a treasure hunt in the gardens, which a particularly cold May Day made a bit of an endurance test … George Lucas has been with us since the weekend. I saw him standing in the conservatory at Wallingford House, in a group that included Kurtz, Kersh, and editor Paul Hirsch. There they were, filmmakers framed in glass, each very different physically, all bearded, like figures in a Degas painting. From my position in the tea tent, I had no way of knowing what they were discussing, but they looked at ease. These are not men whom it is easy to read. The film is behind schedule, but their demeanor reflected no such anxiety.”
