The Hardback Memoir written by Alison Steadman features candid recollections perfect for bedtime reading or leisurely analysis.
The first memoir from the national treasure, critically acclaimed actress and much-loved Gavin and Stacey star.
Candice Marie in Nuts in May. Beverly in Abigail's Party. Mrs Bennet in Pride and Prejudice. Betty in Fat Friends. Sue in Here We Go and Pamela in Gavin & Stacey - we can all name a beloved, iconic character brought to life by the magnificent Alison Steadman.
Growing up in post-war, working-class Liverpool, the young Alison - ever the entertainer - would address the world from the stage of her bedroom window, until she got a taste for performing in front of an actual audience at her progressive 1960s drama school.
Always pushing boundaries - reclining naked on a sofa in her first role, embracing groundbreaking female characters from day one - Alison has deservedly found acclaim and recognition.
From the nervy Mrs Bennet to the robo-dancing Pam-el-aah, Alison has proved herself again and again to be a comedy genius.
