I humbly apologise for reality Television.

I humbly apologise for reality Television.

Nothing is a career move. Everything I’ve done this year has so not been a career move.

Well it has been very exciting and very changing as well. Celebrating the 40th year and having the album out and the Channel 4 documentary and I resigned from Blind Date.

The best advice he gave me was to carry on. It would have been difficult to set foot back inside a TV studio if I hadn’t carried on – I don’t know if I would have ever gone back in.

I did smoke a joint once but I did not enjoy it.

The nicest thing about coming of age is that I can do whatever I like.

But reality television is here to stay.

I never did acid, I am just so high anyway.

The difference with me is that I did inhale.

It was an unknown thing, a lot of people had very bad trips and I like to be in control.

I had to do the book because there was an unauthorised biography which didn’t tell it like it was.
