- After On the Buses (1969) ended he struggled to get any acting work at all because he had become typecast as Jack Harper.
- He had suffered from depression for many years, and famously went missing for a time in 1987.
- He was treated for carbon monoxide poisoning in 1995 after a suicide attempt.
- He worked as a bus driver in real life, in order to pay his way through RADA.
- Graduated from the university of the East End of London and had intellectual aspirations. He had his own academic opinions of comedy and was not interested in listening to others.
- On his disappearance for five days in 1987: For me the worst time was when the panto ended. To have a taste of what work could be like again, then to have that snatched away from me, was awful. All I could see was the empty months ahead, debts building up, no hope. I went into a black depression. I'd sit for hours with my head in my hands. I felt that I was in a black room with no window and no door, and the walls were coming in towards me. I just felt like screaming. I knew I had to get out, get away. I wanted to die, and I decided to top myself.
