I'm quite grateful to the BBC. They helped me back onto the touring circuit.

I've been on the road for four years. I won't recognise the place again, until I walk out on stage.

I never watch TV. I'm a Radio Four addict. I love listening to music too.

They can certainly expect to be very impressed with the technical aspects of the show, fooled and led up the garden path by the story and ultimately have a jolly good laugh!

We were the victims of the new producer but what annoyed me was they told the press we were leaving before us.

They handled it very badly. It was disappointing and very humiliating. John York was very rude. He never consulted with me over what he said to the press.
