Mike Reid, T'rific

T'rific is the autobiography of the late, great Mike Reid... someone who I'm a massive fan of and will be sadly missed. He tells us about his life from childhood through to adulthood and as you might expect from such a comic genius; the story is told with plenty of humour but watch out for some tear-jerking moments as well, for example the whole story about his children. It's a wonderfully candid, passionate insight into the man who became a household name as Frank Butcher; detailing his journey from the underworld to the stage. Up front and unashamed, this book is a real page turner.

Would fully recommend to anyone, any age, fan or not!
