Right, a bit of lighted fun in these testing times.

Mine is, performed twice at The Royal Albert Hall.
First time around I sang a solo to a full house.

For those of you who are old enough to remember, it was a Gala for the Boy's Brigade.

Don't judge me, I was very young and thankfully Mr Savile, Harris & Glitter were nowhere in site during or after my BAFTA winning performance!

Back in 1981 a week before my 13th birthday I became Berks and Bucks youngest referee.

Arsenal at home (the midweek game 2014/15). I was on the pitch at HT doing the challenge and was told it was being broadcast all over Asia ( I proceeded to duly fûck it up)

Wogan did a live show from Bush green fairground once and for the title credits they kept the rides running for about 5 times the normal length - I eventually got off and vomited on live TV

My brothers is better - he won crackerjack with Leslie Crowther in the 60s from the TV theatre- his prize was a scooter.

I got to the final of The Weakest Link, then, unbelievably lost to a 76yr old granny who appeared to otherwise know very little about anything and was a nervous wreck.

As a small boy I went to a cub scout performance at the Royal Albert Hall by Rolf Harris. Only part that I really remember is his Jake the Peg routine!

My claim to fame. I was part of the London Lord Mayor's Parade once. Being driven around town in the Pope mobile! There was some TV footage of the vehicle driving along at distance with my little head bobbing around. Then just as we're getting into shot and our school introduced by the TV presenter I subsequently fall off my seat.

I was taught to play guitar by the original Deep Purple Bassist, played football with Ray Wilkins in the Hayes & District league (even at two years younger than the rest of us you could see he was quality) and was taught to shoot a handgun by the weapons training officers at Dayton (Ohio) Police Academy.

The grass is always greener.

I sang in a group on a charity single for Telethon 1990 (an old ITV equivalent of children in need) with Jive Bunny. Got to 17 in the charts or something sht and my mum has loads of VHS of me touring round television studios looking absolutely terrified because I hadn't realised all the puppet co-hosts on kids TV had a bloke operating them from below.
Think the song was a horrendous mash up of don't like Monday's, brick in the wall and Baggy Trousers.

I was once in a film with Fred Astaire and Charlotte Rampling.

It was Purple Taxi and because Ms. Rampling's breasts could be seen in one bath scene the film was banned and my moment of fame was denied me by the Irish Censorship board.

I got paid 12 quid a day for three days and free meals, and I am reliably formed that never in the history of World Cinema has a blonde five-year old boy herded cows with such deep, studied solemnity as I.

I'm not sure if I've ever mentioned it, but I was in Minder. I also made some false teeth for John Major, the wives of Smith and Jones and Rolf Harris's daughter. I also made a false tooth for a dog. I played football with Scott Donnelly and he made me fall over twice.

Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

Claire from Steps used to, ahem, "date" her boyfriend in Hillingdon Station car park as it was only £2.00 to stay there for the whole day. Very resourceful.

Wasn't his digeridoo was it??

I was in Hornblower, Green Streets and played a greasy pimp who gets shot by a lovely German Actress in a film that was never released.

What I was up against..
