He received an OBE in 2009. [Listener: Neil Binney] TRANSCRIPT: The next film was another comedy with Dudley Moore. That was called 'Thirty Is A Dangerous Age, Cynthia', directed by Joe McGraf, who was comedy director who'd worked with Peter Sellers and, he's a very funny guy, and we shot on location in Wimbledon and in the studio in St John's Wood, and it was about a guy who's approaching 30 and, you know, he wanted to have made some mark in his career by the time he reached 30 and he was a musician and he wrote a musical which appeared as if it was going to be an absolute disaster, but in fact turned out to become, you know, a success, so he succeeded by the time he was 30. We also went to Dublin. I had my first experience of working with the Irish, which was a delight. I really- the Irish crews were such fun and they're such wonderful storytellers that I've always enjoyed working in Ireland. Looking back on this film, which has been on television a number of times, I kind of wish I hadn't done it because looking at that- some of that early work, I really feel- oh dear; oh my goodness; I got this so wrong- in terms of lighting- I really- looking back on most of my early lighting, not all of it but a lot of my early lighting, I think oh dear; why did I do it like that?
