Quote:
When were you happiest?
When I was six, I went to stay with my uncle George in Newbiggin-by-the-Sea. I was at my happiest with my cousin Gary on the beach.
What is your greatest fear?
I have no fear at all.
Which living person do you most admire, and why?
The Dalai Lama, for his love and compassion.
What is the trait you most deplore in others?
Intolerance of other people’s beliefs.
What was your most embarrassing moment?
In 1964, when I was Fancy Smith in Z Cars, I climbed the statue of Helios at BBC Television Centre. I blew up a french letter and put it on his penis. All the heads of television were down below and they switched on the fountain and bloody drenched me.
What is your screensaver?
A photograph of the north face of Mount Everest. I have been there three times, the last time I was only a few feet from the top but I had to rescue a man who was dying.
Which living person do you most despise, and why?
Trump. He is a fart.

I love myself: I look like a cross between a yeti and King Kong.

Being a know-it-all.
What did you want to be when you were growing up?
An astronaut. I have completed cosmonaut training at Space City in Moscow.

Frightening bullies.

Follow your dream. And don’t let the bastards grind you down.

Being an undertaker’s assistant at 15. My father had been injured in the coal mines and I had to leave school early and look after the family.

I’m not going to die!
