He wrote: "I completely adored him and was devastated when he died in 1990. Much too young at sixty-eight.
"My grandad had a huge influence on me. He had a happy personality, always placid and content. Forever cracking jokes and forever in my memory he's smiling. I rarely ever saw him angry or fed up."
The entertainer, renowned for his observational wit and touching narratives, explains he would visit his grandfather following lessons or throughout school breaks. He notes his parents frequently worked "long hours" throughout the day.
His grandfather had been compelled to retire prematurely after contracting lung disease from his employment as a stoker on steam locomotives and in coal pits.
Peter continued: "It must have been tough, and his pride would have been knocked as he'd always grafted. I knew he found it hard doing nothing, so he filled his days looking after me and getting out and about."
The Car Share star also opened up about Remembrance Day in his book. He says his grandad would take him when he was a child. Peter recalled walking into town wearing his poppy with pride as he walked into the town hall square, soaking in the spectacle of the parades and music.
"It was always emotional seeing crowds gather each year. The dwindling number of ex-service men and women... I was always impressed by the parades that marched past the cenotaph. The music, and the pivotal moment at eleven o'clock when the 'Last Post' is played by a lone bugle, followed by the moving two-minute silence," he said.

An old man leaned over to me and whispered, 'That bang frightens the young'uns every year.' I thought, 'Yeah and some of the adults too. I suffer from globophobia, buddy.'".
However, Peter admitted that not all modern ceremonies live up to the solemnity he remembers. "Sadly, the respect had somewhat waned this year. When we had the two-minute silence, somebody received a text message. 'Beep, Beep.' Then a woman right in front of me was vaping. And somebody brought a bloody puppy. Barking and yapping all through the service. Rude f******," he said.
