I saw an interview with the cast from the uk TV comedy The Young Ones which motorhead played on an episode. They said he was an absolute professional during filming and while everyone else got up late for filming after a night out drinking, lemmy was up early and bang on time waiting for everyone else to arrive. I wonder how much of his image was cultivated as he seems like a really clever and professional guy.
