‘I'm always wary of llamas. They're mischievous and smart. I get a sense,when I approach them, that they are conferring . . . as if to say,'that's that bloke off the telly.’
Bill Bailey always had a variety of dogs in his life, including a LakelandTerrier called Rocky who would travel with him in the van to his first shows andoccasionally join him on stage. Fast forward a few decades and Bill shares hishome with a variety of birds, dogs, frogs, chameleons, and an armadillo calledTommy. ‘We even had a giant chicken at the house for a while, a huge Malaycockerel, Kid Creole. After a few stand-offs he took against me. He had to go inthe end, I was being stalked in my own back garden.’
That chicken apart, animals have always been at the heart of an extraordinarylife as one of the nation's favourite comedians, actors, musicians and (thanksto Strictly) dancers: from terriers to the orangutans of Sumatra and the parrotsthat share his breakfast every morning in west London.
As anyone who has ever had a pet knows, animals are a constant source of joy,but they also connect us to the world and to each other, touching on a deeper,older human need for companionship. Full of the leftfield humour, wit and wisdomthat has made Bill Bailey such a beloved performer around the world, My Animals,and Other Animals is the story of Bill's life, but more than that, it's thestory of how all of our lives are enriched by the animals who accompany us onthat journey.
