Here I am with Olivia Newton-John in 1995. I was playing Danny in Grease in London opposite Samantha Janus and we got a call to say that Olivia was in town and could she come to see the show. I was nervous enough, but Sam was throwing up knowing the original Sandy was going to be watching! We met Olivia afterwards and she told great stories about the movie.<\/p>","url":"2008/8/11/Dont-Forget-The-Lyrics-06-1.jpg","width":570,"height":364,"alt":"Don't Forget The Lyrics 06"},{"captionHeading":"Livin' the High Life","caption":"
This is me and my wife Christie on a private jet in late 2003. I got a call from Patrick Kielty asking me to go on his chat show in Belfast, and I told him I couldn't go because of the flight timings. But he said, \"It's alright, we'll send you a private jet!\" When I got there they had a surprise for me - Christie was waiting on the plane with a glass of champagne!<\/p>","url":"2008/8/11/Dont-Forget-The-Lyrics-07-1.jpg","width":570,"height":364,"alt":"Don't Forget The Lyrics 07"},{"captionHeading":"United Fans United","caption":"
At Old Trafford with my boys Jake and Shane on my 40th birthday in March 2004. I'm a lifelong United fan. Sir Alex Ferguson gave me a shirt signed by the players, with my name and the number 40 on the back and the words: \"To the best pub landlord in the country, Happy 40th from Alex Ferguson.\" It meant a lot to me.<\/p>","url":"2008/8/11/Dont-Forget-The-Lyrics-05-1.jpg","width":570,"height":364,"alt":"Don't Forget The Lyrics 05"},{"captionHeading":"The King, Jr.","caption":"
Aged eight on holiday, doing a double act with some other youngster (I'm on the mic). Part of the reason I wanted to work there (I was a Bluecoat when I was 16) was from these holidays as a kid. I'd do silly gags and throw in a bit of Frank Spencer and Elvis. I used to do an impression based on what would happen if Frank Spencer became Elvis and vice versa. Even then I was trying out material. I knew I wanted to be a performer.<\/p>","url":"2008/8/11/Dont-Forget-The-Lyrics-03-1.jpg","width":570,"height":364,"alt":"Don't Forget The Lyrics 03"},{"captionHeading":"Baby Shane","caption":"
That's me and my mum Lily, who was a cleaner in Harlesden, northwest London. She had me when she was very young; I'd have been about three or four there and she'd have only been about 20. We're still so close to this day and she's been one of the biggest supporters of my career. She is coming to watch Don't Forget the Lyrics and trust me, you'll know when she's in!<\/p>","url":"2008/8/11/Dont-Forget-The-Lyrics-04-1.jpg","width":570,"height":364,"alt":"Don't Forget The Lyrics 04"}];
