Sachs considers Ross chatshow appearance

Andrew Sachs has revealed that he is considering appearing on Jonathan Ross's talkshow to accept an apology over the Manuelgate row.

However, the Fawlty Towers star told The People that the final decision rests with his wife, Melody Lang.

Sachs, 78, said: "I'm too old to bear grudges or resentments, it's just a waste of time.

"I've heard they'll be inviting me on Jonathan's chatshow. I'll definitely consider it. But I'll have to ask my wife, of course, [to] see what her take on it is."

Ross previously said that he would like Sachs to appear on Friday Night With Jonathan Ross so that he can apologise in person.

The 48-year-old was suspended from the BBC for three months after an outcry over the prank phone calls he and Russell Brand left on Sachs's answering machine.

Brand, 33, resigned from the corporation after the "grossly offensive" messages were broadcast on his Radio 2 show.

Sachs revealed that he has now put the incident behind him, saying: "I've stopped thinking about this whole thing really. I'm just trying to get on with my life."
