Finding him in suitably defiant mood – “I’m generally already on an unswayable path and there’s not much anyone can do to get me off it apart from kill me. Some try… understandably” – our man Stuart Clark gets to hear Morrissey’s thoughts on everything from sex symbols, Jimmy Savile and drugs to Israel, his new record deal and the amazing Mrs. Shufflewick.
Fans will be fascinated as he reflects fully for the first time on his recent health problems (“I’ve been in so many hospitals lately that there’s hardly any point in me leaving”) and what they might mean for his future. “These physical failings are warning signs, and we’re all heading towards death,” he says.
Also up for discussion are Syria; celebrity chefs; the Scottish independence vote and his instant Penguin Classic, Autobiography.
