I am a seasoned actor, who owes much to Winston Churchill for the endless assignments I get to play him these days, because of my demeanour, parlance and the fact that I look very like him.

The Mini Bar Song - The Complainers Featuring Dirty Tackle
Description: AS THE former manager of Opera star Russell Watson, Will Robinson is used to five star service.
But his last talent-scouting trip abroad was a new experience even for the notoriously globe-trotting Will.
And now his 'experience' at a five star hotel in Abu Dhabi looks set to give the Cheshire-based music guru a chart hit in his own right.
The shoddy treatment he received at the luxurious Al Wahda Millennium Hotel - including having his mini-bar repossessed from his five star room while he slept - inspired Will to pen 'The Mini Bar Song', now set to be a smash hit and already a YouTube sensation.
Will's hilarious take on his Abu Dhabi drama has been recorded by 'Dirty Tackle', led by 72-year-old actor Gerry George who sings and playing his Ukulele on the track.
The side-splittingly funny comedy song has already had hundreds of YouTubers laughing out loud and is now tipped by industry insiders to be the surprise chart hit of the festive season.
Will said: "I was asked for a 500 Dirhams deposit by the Al Wahda Millennium hotel receptionist when I stayed in Abu Dhabi - more than the cost of the pre paid hotel room.
"Short of local currency I offered Pounds Sterling, Thai Baht, my Debit card and 400 Dirhams but I didn't have my Credit card with me.
"The manager was called and after 30 minutes I was finally given a room and room card.
"But that did not stop the hotel management sending a waiter to repossess my mini bar later on that evening while I was in bed asleep.
"I was, clearly, outraged, but there wasn't much I could do there and then. When I got home I wrote several letters to the hotel group's head office but after getting nowhere I decided to write "the Mini Bar Song" in frustration at my treatment.
"I travel all over the world in my job and this is the first time anything like this has ever happened. I'm philosophical about it though - it may have been outrageous at the time but it has potentially given me a chart hit, so I guess I can't complain too much."
The 'Mini-Bar Song is available via iTunes.

General Experience
69 years of it, in pictures, radio, television, stage. Panto in my earlier days, but I still do Dame (the traditional version), when it comes my way.
I served for 31 years as a Reserve Army Officer, retiring in 1990
with the rank of major; my having been, for the most of my service, a journalist in uniform, and one dedicated to effecting understanding between the military and the civilians, and particularly in places like post-war Germany, where we had to build bridges before we could get on *speaking terms* with a Anglo-Saxon cousins, again.
