Oh, now there's a question! Mum and Dad are often bewildered but very proud of me. My brother... Well, he gave me a right earful about being mistaken for me in a Brubek's the other day, but I don't think he's too jealous; he gets paid more than I do and hasn't been shot at since he swore off married women.
(And if the chap who bought "me" several pints is reading this, if I see Dave first I'll be happy to give him a right slap upside the head on your behalf.)
As for my three boys, they all cope amazingly well but I think they find it kind of trying. Mikey put it best, I think; "If I have to be famous, I want to be famous for being me, not for being Tom Rutley's son."
