Laurence Olivier...

In later years.

Joan [Olivier's wife] remembers that at one such awards evening they were in a box when Dennis Quilley and Peter Bowles did a turn from The Entertainer. 'The audience applauded and Larry got up and bowed. One had to keep hold of him. If he heard applause he thought he ought to get up and take a bow.' 483
