Robin and I are twin brothers," he reminds, "and I definitely have a kind of ESP with him. One time when he was a boy, he was riding a bicycle and he had a crash. I didn't; I was at home, but I ended up aching and I wondered what the hell I was aching for. Robin came back and he had bruises in exactly the same places I had mine.

"When Robin was in the Hither Green train disaster, he was late for a press conference and I said, 'There is something wrong. Something has happened to Robin.' And Barry said, 'What do you mean?' And then we found out. We watched the news, saw the train disaster and I went, 'Robin was on it!' We went to Hither Green Hospital and there was Robin--his wife was in having x-rays--sitting there going, 'I didn't think I was going to see you guys again. He pulled six people out of a carriage, and he said, 'I never knew I had that much strength.' He laid them on the lawn, and they were all dead. I knew he had been through a strenuous thing--my arms were aching."'
