London, May 1973, backstage at Peter Cook and Dudley Moore’s Behind The Fridge. <strong>Bowie</strong> was accompanied by Tony Visconti, the first time they’d seen each other in three years: “The David that I knew had mousy brown hair, and he walks into the kitchen with spiky orange hair, no eyebrows and a metallic suit. Our nanny dropped my son’s bottle on the floor when she saw him!” The ‘Life On Mars?’ video shoot.
