Product Description: Bruce Forsyth is known to millions as the face of such family entertainment classics as The Generation Game, Play Your Cards Right, and The Price is Right. But his story encompasses much more than this, spanning more than two-thirds of the 20th century. In the late-1950s, the show Sunday Night at the London Palladium made Bruce Forsyth a star, but it had been a long hard slog since his debut as Boy Bruce, the Mighty Atom in 1942, aged 14 - working for the Red Cross during the war. This is Bruce's first account of his whole life, full of anecdotes, honest appraisals of the tough times, including the failed marriages and affairs, and comments on entertainment today.

Dear Fatty

VGC plus. Century, 2008. First UK edition-first printing(2 4 6 8 9 7 5 3 1). Black hardback(gilt lettering to the spine, small nick and scratch on the cover) with Dj(some nicks, creases and scratch on the Dj cover), both in VGC. Nice and clean pages with a ink mark on the outer edges, a couple of creases and nicks on the edges of the pages. Nice and clean book with light shelf wear on the Dj cover. 368pp. Price clipped. Product Description: Dawn French is one of the greatest comedy actresses of our time, with a career spanning nearly three decades and encompassing a vast and brilliant array of characters that would eventually establish her as a national treasure. nShe first appeared on the British entertainment scene as part of the groundbreaking alternative comedy group, the Comic Strip, which marked a radical departure from the more traditional comedy acts of the time. Later came the all-female Girls on Top with Jennifer Saunders, Ruby Wax and Tracy Ullman. Then, as part of the wildly successful duo, French and Saunders, Dawn helped create a repertoire of brilliantly observed recurring characters parodying popular culture and impersonating everything from Madonna and Harry Potter to The Exorcist. Dawn's more recent role in The Vicar of Dibley again has showcased not only her talent but also her ability to take a controversial issue and make it mainstream and funny. n nFrom her early years as an RAF child to her flat-sharing antics with Jennifer Saunders, from her outspoken views on sizeism to her marriage to Lenny Henry, Dear Fatty will chronicle the fascinating and hilarious rise of a complex, dynamic and unstoppable woman.

Goodyear, Julie

Just Julie

Mint condition. Macmillan, 2006. First edition-first printing(1 3 5 7 9 8 6 4 2). Gold hardback(black lettering to the spine) with DJ(two small nicks, crease and scratch on the Dj cover), both in mint condition. Illustrated with colour, b/w photos. 314pp including index. Price un-clipped. Product Description: For twenty-five years, Julie Goodyear became part of everyone's family when she played Bet Lynch, the loveable brassy barmaid of the Rovers Return in Coronation Street. Now, at sixty-four (the age her mother was when she died), Julie feels the time is right to tell her amazing life story. Julie Goodyear 's father walked out on the family soon after Julie's birth so Julie was brought up by her mother Alice and stepfather. Her upbringing in Manchester was impoverished but Julie coped largely through the love for her spiritualist grandmother, who Julie would accompany when she was called upon by the local community to lay out the dead. At just thirteen, Julie had to deal with her beloved grandmother's death when she was found in a canal. Julie fell pregnant at sixteen, bringing shame and embarrassment, before marrying Ray Sutcliffe. The marriage only lasted three years. In 1966, Julie made a six-week appearance in Coronation Street as Bet Lynch from Elliston's Raincoat Factory, a role which made her Britain's best-loved barmaid and a cultural institution. In 1979, during a routine check up, Julie discovered she had cervical cancer and had two operations. At the time she was given a year to live. Various liaisons during the ensuing decade included Julie's first foray into a same sex relationship with her housekeeper. In 1987, Julie left Coronation Street for a while to nurse her mother Alice who was dying of terminal cancer. Julie finally quit the series on 2 October 1995 after walking away with a lifetime Achievement Award at the first National Television Awards. In 1996, she was awarded an MBE. Julie's much anticipated autobiography reveals, for the first time and with incredible candour, the truth, sadness and spirit behind this larger than life woman. As New/Fine. ISBN: 9780230014336
