When did Roger start playing keyboards? Is it something he learnt from experimenting or did he get proper lessons? I know John learnt himself - the infamous electric piano on You're My Best Friend.
Is there any noticeable playing by Roger because I can't think of one song where he does all the keyboards on it? I think I read somewhere that he did the keys as well as percussion on the Band Aid 30 song, can someone confirm this?

Good question. Surprised no one answered.

I'm curious to know as well. Which begs me to question whether there's a good biography written about Roger. We've got countless about Freddie, one about Brian (that I know of), but zilch about Roger or John, specifically.

Well we know he wrote Radio Ga Ga on a keyboard.
