We had not had time to establish ourselves as a double act before Ernie joined the Merchant Navy. I teamed up with the brother of the late Dave Morris.
I'm obsessed with the Victorian era and the British Royal Navy. . . I'd love to play a troubled sailor or captain or a boatman on a three masted ship.

I haven't been down to Navy Pier in such a long time. I know that's probably the touristy thing to do, but it just reminds me so much of 2000 when I was here shooting ["Hardball"].
