'''You mention being given about 4 months to meet a Christmas deadline, with Lemmings actually launching in February 1991. Does this mean your hiring date was around… August or September 1990? Is that right?'''

This was August 1990, I think. Launch date was a few months away!

'''Speaking of challenges, what's the biggest challenge in working remotely as a contract artist?'''

My small studio was away from home in order that I didn't have any family interruptions during urgent creativity. Lemmings, I envisaged, was about to become a major part of my life.

'''How does it feel to have impacted so many lives in such a positive way?'''

A couple of years ago I was asked to appear in a film about the history of Lemmings. Eventually I was invited to the premiere in Dundee. My wife and I were shown to the VIP area in a cinema filled with Lemmings fans and watched the film. Very moving. At the end there was a questions and answers session. Someone asked about the original artist and I was asked to stand and take a bow. The audience stood and applauded. Later I answered lots of questions, signed autographs, and generally enjoyed the fame.
