India and England, to the Lewisham Polytechnic.
He then plunged into the world of Show Business, seduced by his
first stage appearance, at the age of eight, in the nativity play
of his Poona convent school. He began his career as a band
musician, but has since become famous as a humorous scriptwriter
and actor in both films and broadcasting. Spike received an
honorary CBE in 1992.
