I find it hard to connect the current day Michael Crawford with his portrayal of Frank Spencer. It's as though they're two completely different performers.
My half sister used to play with him when they were small. His nan and mine were neighbours. There is a day centre in our town named after him, deservedly so.
Saw 'Many Faces of Michael Crawford' on BBC 2 on Mon at 11 p.m. Watch it on Catchup What a talented actor,singer,stuntman he has been.Now in his 70s -about his latest show said 'the whole reason I did 'Wizard of Oz' was for my grandchildren.
