==Early life==
Adopted at the age of three weeks, he is the only son of Edlington miner Tom Kirkham and his wife Elsie: ''"My whole life has been the luck of going to a good family."''
After passing the Eleven plus exam, he attended Maltby Grammar School (since 1967 called Maltby Comprehensive School) and hoped to join the Royal Air Force as a pilot. Failing to get the required five O levels, Kirkham got a job in a local furniture store.〔
