Roy 'Chubby' Brown.

His politics were years ahead of his time and, clearly, the template for our current Prime Minister.

Saw Tony Benn speak are an event in Essex in the 80’s. He was constantly heckled by the local ‘Loadsamoney’ brigade that was rampant down there at the time but I thought he was great.

Barring him I’d say either Morrissey, Lynval Golding or Ken Dodd.

Doddy was an extraordinary performer.

His gags weren't always brilliant, he wasn't often up to date, but boy did he know how to deliver 'em. Perfect timing one after another, if one wasn't so funny it didn't matter because you were still laughing from the last. It was relentless, he would feed off the audience and urge them to.' give in to it'. He literally had them rolling the aisles.

Bob Dylan by his presence and lyrics alone as he doesn't usually say a word!

Dalai Lama glasto 15.
Clouds parted and the sun shone down on the pyramid stage as he started to speak. Was very moving at the time. Was hungover as fcuk, but still had a "moment" with the missus where time stood still.
