Andrew Sachs probably does not want publicity or employment any more than your grandfather does
yes. that'll be why he's agreeing to do phone interviews with arsehole celebrity DJs, etc.
isn't he still doing the odd piece of voiceover work, too?

Ah yes, Ant & Dec with their hilarious "blacked up" "Rich Arabs" "wind-up" "routine." Most fitting for the nation's favourite Chiswick-dwelling Tory-voting professional Geordies!
Sachs I think still relatively busy on the voiceover/audio books front.

Mark Heap, Tras Duprez
"Using make-up sticks we transformed our white reporter Tras Duprez, into a black man to see if the law would treat him any differently. Within five minutes, he'd committed a pocket theft and by mid-afternoon, he was attacking passers-by with violent muggings, and fleecing them viciously on the cobbles."

The Daily Mail has got all the info and photos of Andrew Sachs daughter in stockings and high heels you need - including a transcript of the phone calls and Andrew Sachs saying basically 'calm down everybody'.
Miss Baillie said last night: 'I've only just got back.'I was aware of what happened but I just need some time to get my head together now.'I don't want to say anything more until I've had a chance to speak to my agent.'

Telegraph, as Tom said above, also provides a link to the source - so much for "double standards."
