His grandad had been an impecunious artist who painted beautiful pictures of fruit for the local greengrocer's window in exchange for free food.
Harris's father, Crom, who grew up in Cardiff, showed talent but was fiercely discouraged from a career in art by his dad. Instead, Crom studied electrical engineering and met Rolf's mother Marge, the first analytical chemist in Wales, before heading back for Australia. Harris says his childhood was perfect. Out every day with his brother, Bruce, exploring; loved and nurtured by both parents. He was sporty, artistic and bright, and his mother made him believe that he could achieve anything.
By 16 he was Australia's junior backstroke champion. The young Harris came to Britain to study at art school, before evolving, via a short teaching career, into TV's greatest kids' entertainer. He always had a wonderful touch with children - whispering, laughing, cajoling through the screen as if there was only one person in the world he was talking to. Why do kids love you? The adults you liked were the ones who listened to you when you spoke and gave you time to say what you wanted to say and actually listened, and quite often reacted as a result of what you'd said.
Every stressed syllable, every pant, reflects a sense of childlike wonder. You are the private. So how dare you speak to me. He doesn't quite know what to do with his huge freckled hands. So he brushes tiny specks of dust from the table. Now he's whispering, purring. Now this is the greatest piece of magic there's ever been. My dad showed me this when I was eight and it was like aaaaaaaaaaaah!
You know how to rip paper cleanly? And you've got a perfect rip. Learn something new every day. It's so simple this, and you can't believe the magic Now you fold that bit over and you can see vaguely through there, you can see that. This is the basis of animation, two-part animation. Now, I'm going to raise that hair up there like that. Now, roll this little bit up here.
As soon as he laughs, I laugh. He is transported. So am I. You roll that little bit up there and you make a beautiful spring, and you make sure you fold it in the right place. Now check this. He has made me a talking face, and is showing me how it works. How are you? Good grief, I can't be-lieve it. Check that. It's in-cre-dib-le. But there's always been more to Harris than the shtick. In , he made Britain's first programme warning children about sex abuse. Years earlier he had seen a teacher friend who had told him that she had just given a talk to her pupils about abuse and, halfway through, a child ran out of the classroom and vomited up his past.
Harris says he was naive, he didn't know that such things happened, and he became determined to address the subject on telly. He was told that it would be the death of his career. Typically, Harris not only made the programme, he managed to do it with a sing-song element. And he starts singing. So he went to the black townships.
Again, typical Harris, he admits it was a disaster. It's also self-lacerating. He says, quite plainly, that in many ways he has been a useless husband and father. I tell him the book's great. Why was he so hard on himself? His voice drops. When you start writing it you realise that all the stuff you've done throughout your life has been really very self-centred, really self-centred. But when his career took off, Alwen was often left alone, doing little with her life. In the book he writes of the day he found a scrap of her diary in which she had written, "I don't know what I am going to do.
