1:20:03
I hit the bottle like I was 18 and 19...
1:20:06
and I was acting like
I was still at college.

1:20:10
The only terrible thing...
1:20:11
that I can say about John Lennon is
he was an absolutely miserable drunk.

1:20:15
He could not stop once he started.
1:20:17
Two Brandy Alexanders, and he
was absolutely charming, delightful...

1:20:21
told the old stories, was witty and lovely.
1:20:24
By the third...
1:20:26
he started to snarl, and after that,
he was uncontrollable.

1:20:31
It was the first night
I had drank Brandy Alexanders...

1:20:33
which is brandy and milk, folks.
1:20:35
And I was with Harry Nilsson, who didn't
quite get as much coverage as me.

1:20:38
They just sort of said, "Okay...
1:20:40
"you better leave, Mr. Lennon."
And then they took me out.

1:20:42
It was a mistake but, hell, I'm human.
1:20:44
I was drunk in Liverpool and smashed
phone boxes...

1:20:48
it didn't get in the papers then.
1:20:57
Fred Astaire and Ginger Beer!
1:21:02
All right, dancing over with.
1:21:03
- We've done the dancing one.
- Let's make the commercial now.

1:21:05
I'm gonna impound all those photos
till I get my green card.

1:21:09
I was out of control
and nobody was looking after me.

1:21:13
I needed somebody to love me.
1:21:14
There was nobody there to support me
and I fell apart.
