Transcript

00:00You would know Tony in the first record, it was like a magic happened.

00:07Are we fans of Tony DeVe?

00:10We are, he's a god, we worship him.

00:12The most, to me, electrified DJ that has ever been on the planet.

00:17He was a young kid.

00:20Yeah, I thought to myself, yeah, this kid's got talent.

00:22Tony took a shine to him.

00:24I would be in the DJ booth and God love him, he never told me a ****.

00:28Okay, this is the Jupiter 8, which has got all those fabulous hoover noises that I like using.

00:37The harder, the better.

00:38Oh yeah, definitely.

00:40We were just mad about the music, mad about Tony.

00:46He said to me, Jane, I'm gay, and went.

00:48I thought, oh?

00:51You know, we just clicked.

00:52It's an attraction that you've sort of never had to anyone, especially another man.

00:56Yeah, I mean, everybody just thought I was with Tony Anand.

01:00You can't believe him.

01:04We loved and cared for each other.

01:05Just people having fun.

01:07He's on the front cover of every music magazine.

01:09He's the big new thing.

01:11But to be HIV positive, you were the scum of the earth.

01:16The rest of society didn't want to see you.

01:19And he wronged me then to tell me that he was positive.

01:22And...

01:23He wouldn't stop gigging.

01:33When he collapsed, he just wouldn't give up.

01:37That was the last time I'd seen him.

01:39It was like Princess Diana had died for us.

01:42Somebody was taken way, way too early.

01:45As an 18-year-old, you shouldn't have to experience that.

01:48But you don't leave someone like that.

01:50I've got a duty to look after this guy.

01:52It's what Tony set out to do.

01:54And now let's finish it.

01:55And we did.

01:58I don't think he's cheesed anybody's life more than mine.

02:01He's there.

02:02Watch it over.
