Synopsis

In this hilarious, frank and affecting autobiography, Ned Sherrin looks back on his life and career with inimitable wit and a good deal of wisdom. In his long, successful and event-filled career Ned Sherrin has been an innovative satirist (That Was The Week That Was), novelist, anthologist, film producer (including Up Pompeii), celebrated theatre director (Side by Side by Sondheim, Jeffrey Bernard is Unwell) and BBC Radio 4 host (Loose Ends). His autobiography offers fascinating insights into the worlds of British film, radio, TV and theatre from the 1960s to the present day. From fainting in front of a high-court judge, to matchmaking Princess Margaret and Starsky from Starsky and Hutch, he never forgets a good story, and is always happiest when the joke is on him. Famed for his charm and his keen ear for a fine anecdote, Ned Sherrin brings both talents to his autobiography, which is sure to delight and engage his many fans.

I guarantee you will laugh out loud with worrying frequency' DAILY MAIL *'Sherrin is a national treasure: 50 years of brainy laughter liberally dispersed across the nation is a fine legacy' OBSERVER *'The unstoppable flow of gossip in this autobiography is utterly moreish ... waspish, witty and engrossing' DAILY EXPRESS
