Fresh from his stretch in prison disgraced British peer LORD Jeffrey Archer is considering resurrecting his stage career - as a pantomime villain.

Before being sent away for two years of a four year sentence for perjury, the multi-million selling novelist and politician penned a play called THE ACCUSED in which he starred.

Since re-emerging into the free world this month (JUL03) he has been offered a part as bad guy FLESH CREEP in the pantomime ALADDIN at an unnamed London theatre.
