It’s not all plain sailing in Disney’s world

WHATEVER you do, don’t call Roy Disney a Mickey Mouse operator. The 73-year-old nephew of the famous Walt has heard all the bad jokes before and they don’t get any funnier in the retelling.

He is far from being po-faced but the reason he doesn’t get this particular joke is due to the fact that he is still smarting from being fired by the entertainment empire his uncle founded.

Don’t talk about money, either. According to his minders, he finds such conversation boring and, in any event, he has more than enough of it.
