I probably can’t do this subject justice but it’s one that is close to most of our hearts, I know it’s close to mine, and it’s been haunting me lately, because I see so many people who feel unable to let go and move on and I feel for them. So this is about the…

I think my friend Ian Owles was the lighting camera man on this video and Barry Manilow told him afterwards that he felt no one had made him look that good before. Ian had a secret he couldn’t tell anyone, and his secret was that he was colour blind. So on film sets he’d ask…
