This from 43 years ago, original Liver Birds with Nerys Hughes. My memory of it is that it was absolutely freezing. We must have been ready to shoot as we had taken our big coats off. Cheering meself up looking at it.

I just love it when an actor appears, and I know it will be worthwhile. Stephen Graham and everybody in Adolescence had me gripped. That's why I won't give up. Almost 83, new headshots, new London agent, keep going lad.

These pics were sent from yesterday. Strangely appropriate because this was my final talk. But look at the glorious setting in the first, Devonshire Park, Eastbourne, and my final 'LOTSW' with Peter Sallis. It's been a blast, resting now.

I really, really feel like giving up on this bloody X. A respected person tells me that if I deplore the killing of medics in Palestine, I am anti Jew. Trump supporters say he's doing great, anti Labour posters tell me Starmer is evil, and Farage is our only hope. Help!

I saw a tweet earlier from an old 'un like me, "I am powerful, but I am tired", sums me up. However,I am off tomorrow to work for a week in this lovely theatre. Could be my final cruise, we shall see.

I know it's self praise, but I don't care. That someone I've never met takes the trouble to write this means the world.

I am honoured to be representing the Lord Lieutenant at Tameside Armed Forces Day in Victoria Park, Denton on 28th June. The event is always worth attending - live music, entertainment, lots of things to do - and a chance to say thank you to our services. 1pm-4pm.

There are some actors I could never tire of watching. One of these is Andrew Buchan, he brings something special to everything he does. I was in This England, and so was he, we never met.

You see before you an 83 year old man posing like a kid. Today’s my birthday, ā€˜If I’d have known I was gonna live this long, I’d have taken better care of myself’.

If you're looking for an interesting biography of a jobbing actor, may I recommend Imposter by Jim Whelan which explores the many highs and lows of the business. #Imposter #JimWhelan #Acting

My genius friend made me this. I play it before my talks, each pic plays the theme tune, I show the clips that I am in. I get nostalgic, so does my audience.I'm just about done, so have a look, It may be the last time. Fifty years, crikey.

I did a talk some time ago at my local theatre. My mate Thomas came along, and expressed an interest in the technology. I'm just explaining some of it to him. *Deluded*.
