Woody Allen: 'I'm a complete untalented amateur'

Woody Allen is to play at the Royal Albert Hall next week. It will be Woody Allen & His New Orleans Jazz Band's first show in London since 2004.

The Hollywood director has shrugged off any nerves over the performance, branding himself an "untalented amateur".

"It's ironic to me that a musician of my awful dreadfulness could be appearing at the Royal Albert Hall in any form," he told the Today programme.
