So this was a great place to come in those days.
Yeah, my mum named me after the doctor that delivered me.
Really?
Dr Lenworth was his second name.
I don't know who George was, but Lenworth George Henry is my name, so I've got three first names.
Same day as Michael Jackson.
Yeah.
Very good.
I didn't make his money, but I'm doing all right.
My very first memory, very interesting.
There's two, actually.
I'm going to tell you the one that means the most.
The first thing I remember is being in a cot with my sister Kay.
Kay is four years older than me, so I was little.
She was a bit bigger than me.
And I remember holding on to the bars of the cot like I was in baby jail.
And I was watching my mum and dad have a massive row.
And that went on a lot in our house.
It was literally like Plopi and Bluto fighting continually.
And they fought a lot with fists.
