I was sad to hear of the passing of the legendary Lionel Blair this week. I was lucky enough to interview him on stage as part of my “London Varieties” shows. He was exactly as hilarious, charming, heartfelt and mischievous as you’d want him to be. So glad I got to spend this time with him, laughing at his stories of Frank Sinatra, Danny La Rue, Sammy Davis Jr and so many others.

Of course I got it all on film. Here it is. Enjoy.
