He explained: “My sister went on to be a dancer but in those days they used to get £2 a week.
“They had to pay digs and she did two years of it touring round, and the last week she ever did was in London and her digs were £2 and 10 shillings. But she was only getting £2 so she had to ring home for money to be sent down to pay for her digs.
