Just as a comment - presumably everyone who remembers seeing him on TV
in the past saw him as a fairly substantial guy, probably about 6 feet
tall?

I was on stand duty at Olympia back in the late 80's when he was trade
and industry secretary - and he came onto the stand. This was before
Sarah became famous.

I can safely report that the guy is a midget - I'd guess about 5ft
6in, possibly less. Just shows how TV can give you the wrong
impression!
