I’m profoundly ageist when it comes to me... If I wasn’t broke, I’d be having more plastic surgery, writes Terry Prone

TO DISCOVER that, give or take a few months, I am the same age as Fergus Finlay, is shocking. He revealed his age on this page a few weeks ago, and I still haven’t got over it.

Fergus Finlay isn’t old, but he is indubitably a senior statesman, which is why there was national outrage when Dusty the dysfunctional dolphin rammed him in the butt. No decent dolphin would be so impertinent. But it is simply not possible that someone as junior as I am could have been born in the same year as Fergus Finlay, and I’m not having it.
