Felt the urge to contribute my own memories to this thread......
I had the honour of performing along side James in a number of Junior Blue Pantomime's many years ago, back when they were held at the social club.
Belive it or not we used to be rehearse those Pantomimes for many Months in advance & James would be brilliant to be around, witty, great with the young one's.
James would often ad lib on the night & have the audience in stiches, a brilliant performer.
James, do you remember any of these productions??
Brother Goose?
Oliver Twist?
Humpty Dumpty (Yes really we did one called that!!)?
Quinnochio (Creative!!)?
Sleeping Bluety?
There were a few others but I can not recall at present, anyway top man, big fan of his work, would be great to see you at City again one day
