Myself and my family had the pleasure of knowing and working with Michael Gambon. As well as being a mesmerising storyteller, he was an actor with gravitas and good humour in equal measure.

So fun to reunite with my ‘students’ from

@UniversalORL
for the opening of ‘Hagrid’s Magical Creatures Motorbike Adventure’. They are all quite ‘charming’!
Life Imitates Art: During development of ‘Life’s Too Short’, I filmed a scene where I couldn’t reach a parking ticket on my car & suffer the embarrassment of asking a passer by to hand it to me. This happened today in London. It made me chuckle, taking the sting out of the fine!
Our Mum, the kindest, most inspirational and loving Mumma we could have wished for, devastatingly passed away on the 24th March.
While it’s a very difficult time for us, we’re humbled by everyone who has reached out to offer support & to express how Sammy impacted their lives.
I meet lovely people on a daily basis who are fans of

I’m in an elevator. The door opens (not my floor). A man goes to get in...
MAN: “Are you going down?”
ME: “No.”
MAN: “Are you going up?”
ME: (under my breath) “No, sideways! What do you think this is, the Ministry of Magic?”
THE END

My wife,
@SammyDDavis
lost her phone in
@marksandspencer
lingerie dept the other day. She asked me to go and find it. I looked like a bit of a weirdo examining the racks of underwear at close quarters. It all ended well though… I wasn’t arrested and I found the phone!
#Bravo
Thank you Your Majesty for your life-long service and dedication to your role as our Queen. My thoughts are with King Charles and the entire Royal family.

You amaze us all everyday with your courage and strength.

Day, if I were to ask one thing of society, it would be for greater understanding, knowing that whatever someone’s physical difference is, as a person, they are no different. We all aspire to live our best life and we can if we help each other.

Hello, The use of the word ‘midget’ is not appropriate and is considered very offensive if targeted at someone with dwarfism. It’s use is best avoided in all circumstance. Thank you.
I just woke up. I really hate having to defend myself to internet midgets. People, start to respect women. We are JUST the other gender. Pretty mighty if you ask me.
I feel truly honoured to have my own dedicated exhibit at

So sad to hear that the irrepressible Keith Chegwin has died. He had such a unique zest & enthusiasm for all he did. A fine actor too, delivering a hilarious performance with a good helping of pathos in Life’s Too Short. He’ll have them giggling up there, I’m sure.
