00:00 Something odd happened to me. It's not very funny, but odd happened to me last week, but I'll just put it in context
00:04 Uh, you remember the late lamented, uh, Michael Gambon? Oh, yes, uh who played the other wizard, you know Dumbledore? Yes, and I played
00:12 Gandalf and we were often mistaken for each other
00:16 And I think he based his makeup and beard on mine, actually
00:21 One day I was going to see him in a show and after I said do you ever get mistaken for me?
00:25 He said no the whole time and I said well, what do you do? He said no
00:28 They bring me their wretched 10 by 8's of you as Gandalf. I said, what do you do? He said I just sign your name
00:34 But that's in the back of your mind last week I was waiting for the uh,
00:41 Docklands light railway to take me back from the west end to home and the voice behind me said, excuse me, I turned around there were two
00:48 uh young women in their 20s and one of them said
00:51 Are you uh, Michael Gambon?
00:55 And I said Michael Gambon is dead
00:58 He said yes, I know but are you
01:02 I said Michael Gambon is dead and that is an exit line. I swung on to the dlr, but she she followed
01:13 And she was laughing and giggling with her pals and I think what she was doing was she was texting her friend saying i've just seen
01:20 a ghost
01:22 So
