Duncan Fallowell: 'I offered to do Ned Sherrin ... '

Dear Madame Arcati - Your piece on Ned Sherrin reminded that in the Seventies I offered to do him for free but that he said he preferred to pay. I said I never did it for money because it put too much pressure on me, and he said he never did it without money for the same reason. So I went off in a twirl and did Russell Harty (before he became famous on TV). The strange thing is that I didn't recall any of this until Russell Harty reminded me many years later, both of my sexual event with him and of my badinage with Ned. I'd been so drunk that I recalled none of it directly. Nor did I fancy either of them - it was just the happy frivolity of youth.

With best wishes, Duncan Fallowell
