Just went off on a bit of a Nostalgia trip and ‘googled’ Gilbert.
Found this quote, which I quite like, from the guy that supplied the voice. (Phil Cornwell)
“Very very fond memories of Gilbert. It was a break for me in
my career, in a way, and it enabled me to play to my strengths,
which was improvisation. And I was basically given carte blanche
and I was told I could say what I liked – I made it up as I went
along. I have very fond memories of having a go at popstars
of the day and trying my best to puncture a few egos.
Somebody should have punctured mine!”
