In this preview of Davids show catch what he has to say on licking Amy Winehouse's toes, his relationship with Milandra Burrows and that Simon Cowell phone call...

On Amy Winehouse:

David I love that beehive she wears, I love her tattoos, I’d lick her toes! I’m in love with Amy Winehouse, I’d like to lick the inside of her hair, you’d probably find kfc stuck in it! She is absolutely the cats miaow! I’d even lick that tooth that’s missing by sticking my tongue in between the gap and everyone knows I’ve got a good tongue.

On his shape and image

David I was one big fat f**k, with those man boobs
Jayne When it comes to image you’ve talked about procedures you’ve had...
David That’s all old news, I’m not going there, I’ve never been as happy as now and I did plastic surgery in 1981 or so, Michael Jackson went through it, I was unhappy and I thought if I look good.. that’s it really, it’s old news. It’s like Liza, I wish her well but, great talent, we had our differences not a great marriage, it’s over. You put the past behind you and you go to the positive. The positive is there are so many good things happening now, a great tour, I’m really excited about this tour coming up, I’ve got a great band. I’m finishing my own series and I’m starting a new series after this and I’m working with some great people, I’m really really happy.

On Milandra Burrows

Jayne Do you see this getting serious with Milandra? Do you see yourself getting married?
David More than long-term? .. absolutely,
Jayne Do you think you’d like to have kids in the future?
David I hope so but I’d better do it quick if I’m going to be 54 next week that means I’m going to be 74 when they are 20! And I’ll be dead by the time they have their kids.
Jayne Would you have them with Milandra?
David No with a Chinese girl with herpes that I found down the street! What a question!
Jayne How has Milandra changed your life?
David She can cook, Roast Chicken. She can make a mean roast chicken, that skin is so crispy and juicy inside!

On Matt Willis and Liam Gallagher

Jayne Is it true you’re going to be best man at Matt Willis’ wedding?
David Yes, Matt’s my little bud, and he’s marrying a wonderful girl, they’re going to be a great couple. He’s a great talent, I love his music, his solo stuff, he’s got a big career ahead of him!
My best friends here are Matt Willis and James Bourne who were both in Busted but they busted up because the other guy, the never see him and Jason who I met in the jungle, and then a lot of cool musicians like Liam Gallagher who watches Grease every week and I was having drinks the other night, it was Holly Willoby, Martine McCutcheon and Liam’s wife... Nicole Appleton drinking at the Met bar, name drop!! And she told me they want to play Sandy and Danny and I want to get them in to do it, could you see it!!....

On Simon Cowell

Jayne You said you had a phone call from Simon Cowell, why?
David He said I saw you in the jungle and I became a fan, you weren’t what I expected.... I’d read these things but now I think you’re incredible and I think we could be friends and would you join me for tea? So he and two friends got together and they offered me two shows, I was already doing This Is David Gest – the documentary series. I said I’d do Grease is the Word but not Britain’s Got Talent because I was already working 7 days, so he found a new series for me recently. He likes what I do, he likes my comedy, he’s so supportive, such a great guy, I really like him, he’s a great human being and has offered me a lot of work and I really appreciate it!
