What is the strangest job you have ever had? Mine was coaching movie star Oliver Reed in the delicate art of sleight of hand. This is the second part telling the story of the crazy month I spent with him on Nicolas Roeg's Castaway, a task which has to be one of the most unusual jobs in the history of motion pictures.
Oliver’s views on women and other rather unseemly observations are certainly not shared by my own. If you are easily offended by descriptions of raucous behaviour and appalling language please don't watch.

Very amusing, all the more so with your excellent Oli impressions.

I’ve never seen him so relaxed and at peace with himself when he owned Broome Hall and was breeding horses and helped to save the house from falling into ruin. If only he hadn’t sold it and had stayed focused on those projects perhaps his demons might have stayed away

Sensational and outrageous! Thanks for sharing these amazing stories with us, Simon. I still think an audio book of your memoirs would be a sensation - you read/perform so evocatively. x
