    But also, I couldn't think of any of his films more recent than Withnail and I (although he has been in plenty), and to say "I thought you were great in Withnail and I" would be pathetic and almost an insult, like saying to Michael Caine "You were great in Zulu" when he's been in dozens of films since.
    You could have said "Since you're in a bank, are you filming Withdraw and I?!"

    He'd think you were really funny.



    I saw Vic Reeves and Nancy Sorrell on Monday in our local corner shop. Needless to say, I resisted the temptation to coo down the dove from above.

    You should have demanded the finest money known to humanity.

    I bet he'd have liked that.

    I did a gig in Richmond in 2007 and i regularly saw him , he lives just outside town. Most of the time he looked a right miserable g*t!

    Also used to see Keith Wood (ex-Ireland rugby player alot) he looks friendly enough, big bloke though

    Didn't he do horoscopes?

    He was cr@p at them. Mine were never right. I'm still waiting for Nicole off the Renault advert to take me to lunch.
