Carol and Linda left the original series so there were points where I was doing it more or less on my own anyway.“The idea of them coming back for the reboot...you’re going to have everybody in their late 50s.“You’ve got to have new people, young people, or else it’s the Golden Girls of MDF.”Laurence, who releases new book More More More today(sept 15), admits it’s been harder rocking his signature leather trousers this time round.He says: “I’m bit creaky, the last time I did it I was 37, I’m now 57.

The leather trousers are certainly a lot bigger than they were back then.“I often feel as if I’m haunting the show, I feel like Rentaghost, still wandering around in my leather trousers and my frock coat.”So will he still be sporting those leather trews when he turns 60? “I think as long as there’s enough room for incontinence pants I’ll be fine,” he says.Despite being a self-confessed “boomer” LLB is a fan of “woke”.
