The long-awaited autobiography from one of the world's most popular entertainers. Des O'Connor has now starred in his own show longer than anyone in the world - 39 years on prime-time and still going strong. During his career, Des has interviewed all the major personalities of the day, from rock and pop stars, actors and TV celebrities to politicians and members of the Royal Family.
Now, for the first time, Des relives in his own words the events of his extraordinary life - from his early childhood struggle against ill health in the East End of London to his current position as showbiz icon and international star. The normally private performer takes us behind the scenes of his enormously successful talk show, recalling moments shared on- and off-screen with superstars and legends, from Sinatra to Streisand, Sir Elton to Pavarotti.Classy, funny, stylish brilliant autobiography by classy, funny, stylish brilliant star - Britain's best ever TV host. - Sunday People
