Star Wars comes to Holyhead as Darth Vader strikes back in Jedi's back garden
By Tom Chivers
Last Updated: 1:12am GMT 29/03/2008A Star Wars fan got closer to his idols than he would perhaps have liked when he was attacked in his garden by Darth Vader.
How About That? Because news doesn't have to be serious
Aliens, Star Trek and King Kong: Hollywood memorabilia goes under the hammer
Use the force: Star Wars spoofs take off
Jedi Master Jonba Hehol - known to family and friends as Barney Jones, 36, of Holyhead - was giving a TV interview in his back garden for a documentary when a man, dressed in a black bin-bag and wearing Darth Vader's trademark shiny black helmet, leapt over his garden fence.How the assailant may have looked
Wielding a metal crutch - his lightsaber presumably being in for repairs - the Sith Lord proceeded to lay about his opponent, whose Jedi powers proved inadequate for the task of defending himself.After besting Master Hehol in single combat, Vader, who The Sun reports was under the influence of alcohol, went on to assault the camera crew and a hairdresser.
Master Hehol, a hairdresser, who founded the first-ever British Jedi Church in loving homage to the world-famous science fiction franchise with his brother Daniel, was unimpressed by the revenge of the Sith.
"This wasn't a joke. This was serious," he said.
Police are investigating a claim of assault.
The Jedi "religion" was born as a joke in the 2001 census, when almost 400,000 people claimed to believe in the Jedi faith.

Based on the teachings of Yoda, the crinkly green dwarf of the films, the "church" has a branch in Florida and plans to open another in the Philippines.
- "Master Hehol." Shouldn't it be "Master He-Hole"?

Seems to be on the same level as all the other major religions.
They're all based on fantasy and worshiping false idols.
