As you get older three things happen. The first is your memory goes, and I can't remember the other two.

I've always had a sense of humour, and I still do, so I just want to go on performing as long as I can. It's as simple as that.

I've been extremely lucky having been in the army when I was a boy of fourteen.

I can never tell a joke, I've always found it easier to just fall over.

Such is life and life is such and after all it isn't much. First a cradle. Then a hearse. It might have been better, but it could have been worse.

In fact, one was so booked out we went from March and were to go till November, but the pantomime was booked so they transferred the show to the Prince of Wales Theatre because it was so packed out, and it ran on from there.

I used to first go on to entertain an audience. But now I go, and this is really true - I go on to have fun with a crowd of my chums.
