Barry said: “It’s not fun because you’re not quite sure what it was about. If it was real. I saw Robin and my wife saw Andy. Maybe it’s a memory producing itself outside your conscious mind or maybe it’s real.”

He added: “The biggest question of all is: is there life after death? I’d like to know.”

Barry, the last surviving member of the Bee Gees, lost three brothers.
