[@cosifantutte90]

Once again you amaze me by your vast collection of Allen gems/documentaries/recordings! I've never even heard of him doing these sort of things before...thanks for uploading!

[@Floriat]

incredible! Thanks for sharing

[@ivandr2923]

His speaking voice sounds tenorish?

[@letsschubertiad1966]

No, it's just light

[@CharlotteinWeimar]

Tom was interviewed on TV by Melvin Bragg early in his career, do you have that?

[@interpreterr]

Glad I've been able to surprise you :D I've got a few more things to share, so watch this space

[@interpreterr]

I've got a few secret sources :D Seriously - from various friends. I need to work on them to get some more stuff I'd love to see :D

[@a96agli]

Indeed, where do you get this stuff...?

[@peterkar]

He was about five feet five inches...

[@acacia-bloom]

Who Tom Allen?

[@zakaosnat742]

I believe Sir Tom has said, and been documented, at standing at 6'. 😍

[@CharlotteinWeimar]

Where did you get that 5'5" nonsense about Tom, or do you mean Nelson?. Tom is definitely not short, approaching 6 feet tall - I sang with him in his very first operatic role at the RCM and later at Glyndebourne and with Welsh National Opera
