I worked at KFC, as a vegetarian, doing Friday and Saturday nights.

When I was younger, I appeared in the Halifax adverts that featured a cake or a bridge made of hundreds of people. You stood there for three days and were not even really seen.

I worked in a Helms Bakery assembly line that separated egg whites from the yolks and from time to time a box of rotten eggs would come through. Need I say more?

A temp job at BT. I still have nightmares about ADSL lines. I still don’t know what one is. I would find myself on national conference calls being questioned about ADSL lines and told that the problem was in London. I would try not to breathe so they would forget I was there.

Buzz Aldrin. I met him about 10 years ago and all I could do was look at his feet. What greater thing can you do than walk on the moon?

I wanted to play for Arsenal. When I have a kick-around with my boy, I still feel as if someone’s going to spot me.

The births of my children, Harley Moon (28) and Roman (25).

I cry all the time. The last time was at the end of Paddington 2. Shirlie was laughing her head off.

In 1995, I discovered I had two brain tumours. The process of having them removed went on for about three years. It was a long and drawn-out time, wondering whether or not I was going to die.
