All young men should have a certain time in the Army, instead of going running around wild for a few years after school. They would learn discipline and they would learn a good trade. It would be a good opportunity.

Nostalgia is very powerful.

Getting an upset tummy is never pleasant, and it's worse if you get a funny tummy a long way from home.

I was never the glamorous type like Betty Grable.

Always arrive in plenty of time so that when you step on the train or sit down in the plane you're relaxed, not hassled.

I don't listen to music. I never have done.

Seeing photographs of my dad, Bert, on the beach with a knotted handkerchief on his head to avoid getting sunburn still brings a smile to my face.

I never wanted to be a Judy Garland.

I don't think the singers take it as seriously as we used to. The words, the meaning, the phrasing, the feeling of the song. They see the words, they know the tune and they just sing it.

I used to bomb around London in my little Austin 10 throughout the raids to appear on stage and if there was a raid before the show was over I would be there, crouching on a floor wherever I could find a big thick wall.
