\u201cAt 86, it\u2019s surely not too late to publish an autobiography? I have just been too busy working and laughing until now. But I have so many stories, like my Dad stealing a pipe by wearing it, or the lad who robbed a bank and caught a bus home, that it would be criminal not to tell them. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

This is also to say \u201cHello and thanks!\u201d to the many thousands of young people I inspired through my Children\u2019s TV career. I hope you enjoy my Previous Life in Comedy!\u201d<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
