Back when he was doing that film I was into civil war ere-enactments. There was one in Chichester and Burns came by to check it out. I didn't know him then and he just walked around talking to people. He is a short guy and after hearing who he was and his relation to Robert Burns the poet, I kicked myself in the ass for not getting his signature on an old book I had that had a cover made of the wood that came from his barn that he wrote a bunch of poems in. Nice guy that is hard to hear sometimes because he talks very softly.
He ain't heavy, he's my brother.
