Jiří Plachý used the nickname younger, because his father was an equally well-known actor of the same name, famous for the film The Emperor’s Baker – The Baker’s Emperor, where he played the master Kelly. Jiří’s mother Jitka Plachá then worked for Czechoslovak television. “Jitka Plachá helped me a lot in my beginnings. She knew my situation when my father was imprisoned and I had to feed the whole family, and I counted every crown. Jitka therefore played small roles for me, as I say kuk behind the vase. Well-known actors didn’t want to do them, so Jitka always suggested me. At a time when I didn’t even have bread, it was salvation for me. Therefore, I had a great relationship with her son, I loved him very much, “he recalls Bohdalováwhich the report of a colleague’s death hurt a lot.
