THE EXPRESS – 23rd March 2007
 (Wackywales – 23rd Mar)
 
The Express, March 23, 2007 Friday
 
By: Tim Brooke-Taylor
 
Comedy actor and writer Tim, 66, lives in Berkshire with his wife Christine.
 
They have two sons, Ben and Edward, and three grandchildren
 
FAVOURITE FILM
.
 This is very difficult. I used to say Monsieur Hulot's Holiday but when I saw it for the eighth time I thought it was awful. For sheer unadulterated pleasure I look to the Indiana Jones films. There's hopefully a new one being made in the near future - I can't wait.
Also, if I'm allowed another, The Shawshank Redemption.
 
SPIRITUAL HOME
.
 Buxton in Derbyshire where I was born and bred.
 
It may be sentimental memory selection but Buxton after the war seemed to be a beautiful spa town where I could live an Enid Blyton life - riding bikes everywhere and chasing sticks down streams. Actually it was probably a bit more Just William-like. For those who haven't visited the Peak District I say "go now". I promise you won't regret it. Best to go in summer, though.
 
FAVOURITE HOBBY
.
 I'm a golfer. Why do I feel I have to apologise for that, I wonder? It's terrific exercise in a great environment. You can play it with all ages.
I'm not particularly good but, with the handicapping system, you can play against all standards. I've played with the best - Seve Ballesteros – and the worst, no names.
You can tell when people know nothing of golf when they talk about men playing in garishly coloured sweaters with diamondshaped patterns. Well, yes they did - in the Seventies.
You see I'm being defensive again.
 
SIMPLE PLEASURE
.
 It's not a simple pleasure but I love a live audience, whether I'm performing or in the audience itself. I'm also a typical, sad bloke: I'm a gadget man and love anything with a plug.
