Tiswas changed all our lives. We were rock stars overnight. We met everybody in the pop world because it was the show that most of the bands wanted to be on.
Anyway, I told Fred that we'd get a team together, and we were informed that we would be playing on the main pitch at Trent Bridge in Nottingham, which is really hallowed ground, where Test matches are played.
We, on the other hand, did what we did best, which was to throw custard pies at them, bowl soot bombs, set up special exploding stumps and bring a huge gunge tank on to the pitch. Fred did say to me afterwards: 'Perhaps it was a mistake.' 'I'm really sorry, Fred,' I said. 'I assumed they knew what we do.'I agreed to pay for all their dry cleaning and we shook hands and parted. To my surprise, about six months later I received a call from Taverners HQ asking if I would like to join the Tavs.
'Yes, I know that, but I want to watch cricket, and he's coming for 20 minutes. Twenty bloody minutes,' he said, with real emphasis.And off he went in his Range Rover, not the happiest of bunnies. A young Chris Tarrant photographed in 1973. By the time the wonderful Sally James and Lenny Henry joined us, we were being nominated for every award imaginable.It was the year 2000, and I was at the National Television Awards at the Albert Hall to pick up a prize for Who Wants To Be A Millionaire?
I really had had no clue about it, and as I made my way back up to the stage, I began to feel very emotional. Once I’d recovered, as we both turned to face them, the whole theatre audience all stood up to cheer. Apparently there were a lot of tears spilt that night. One evening, the Lady Taverners arranged for Bill Clinton to fly over and talk to a packed audience about child poverty around the world. He was brilliant and spoke for an hour and a half without a note anywhere in sight. He was extraordinary.
By Monday lunchtime we had heard from people all over the country who had been drenching each other in time to whatever they could remember of the words. I remember a well-spoken, well-dressed woman in a Brighton restaurant coming up to our table one evening and saying: 'I am awfully sorry, but do you mind if I do this?'
