He stated the hearsay of him bedding a thousand girls was most probably true, explaining: ‘There wasn’t something higher to do. I do not know, I by no means counted but it surely went on from 1964 till 1980 when AIDS got here in. I did not wish to die for it.’
Describing one shocking sexual encounter on the 1969 film set, George said: ‘I was messing with the receptionist at the hotel in the stuntman’s tent and she [co-star Diana Rigg] was walking up the path and the boys lifted the side of the tent up and there I was on the job. That blew it with Diana and me’ he recalled.
