he's just brought out a book on his ife, though apparently he is unable to read or write - he is of gypsy stock and is in recovery from lymphoma for which he has raised thousands through charity events

I thought at the beginning of his show he was pretty rough in the voice department but as the show went on he became his old self doing excellent send ups of Manilow, Bassey and Tom Jones
