The most entertaining bits are his stories about progressing from a very humble start in life, making it as an English stage actor, culminating in making it to the pinnacle as a regular in the Royal Shakespeare Company.

Less stories about TNG than I would have thought.

His relationships with women weren't anything great though... Under the circumstances, about bang average.

Non-existent is probably hyperbole, but I think it's pretty reasonable to feel that way after your kids have grown and you realize you never made the time to really focus on them. Even if you have a nominal relationship later, it's as an adult, it's only certain times a year, it's focused on the grandkids etc.

Sounds like standard empty-nester then.
