My mother had known for six weeks. I thought she must be involved in a crime; she was always putting the phone
down when I came in.
Crossroads had just been sold in Australia. Reg Watson, the producer, said we had to do some promotion film.
He got me into a boiler suit with a dirty face, sitting cross-legged on the floor of the kitchen, explaining how it had been
wrecked by a bomb. I then had to say, "Come through to my reception, where I want you to meet David Hunter."
I walked through and thought, "That's not Ronnie Allen" and of course, when he turned, it was Eamonn Andrews who said:
"This is Your Life."
