Michael Caine Entertains The Queen....
Sir Michael Caine entertained Queen Elizabeth Ii during a royal dinner by telling her rude jokes.
The monarch asked the actor to make her laugh - and he recited his favourite gags, made famous by late British funnyman Tommy Cooper.
Caine explains, "I told her about four or five Tommy Cooper jokes: 'My wife is very big and she was standing on the corner of the street and the neighbours came down and said, 'Come on fellas break it up'; 'I have given up sex for food, I've got a mirror over the dining room table.' "She laughed at them all".
It is also revealed the acting legend agreed to appear in movie flop Jaws 4, just so he could buy a new house.
Caine made a five minute cameo in the fourth installment of the thriller series in 1987.
He says, "The worst movie I ever did was Jaws 4. I was only in it for five minutes, but it's bad. First of all I choose the great roles and if none of these come, I choose the mediocre ones, and if they don't come, I choose the ones that pay the rent".
But his agent Dennis Selinger reveals, " When I asked him why he wanted to do Jaws 4, he just said he wanted a new house and that was that".
