Chiles is half Croatian and can speak the language fairly well, though he admits his grammar isn’t quite up to scratch.

“The name’s Chiles…” – that’s right, the loveable buffoon who could barely get football right had interviews to join the MI5, but failed the second stage of the process. Probably for the best.
