“I would love to be remembered as kind and fun. Kind and fun. And when one of them died, and then the other one took his own life afterwards because he couldn't live without him. And I would love to be remembered as fun. I don't have any, you know, I don't want any, you know, fame or fortune or... You don't want a big sort of pottery globe erected on the South Bank. Yeah, I think kind and fun would be. And everyone talked about how kind and how fun he was. And that to me is like the most beautiful thing. It's kind and fun.”
