Peter Kay's unerring gift for observing the absurdities and eccentricities of family life has earned himself a widespread, everyman appeal. These vivid observations coupled with a kind of nostalgia that never fails to grab his audience's shared understanding, have earned him comparisons with Alan Bennett and Ronnie Barker. In his award winning TV series' he creates worlds populated by degenerate, bitter, useless, endearing and always recognisable characters which have attracted a huge and loyal following. In many ways he's an old fashioned kind of comedian and the scope and enormity of his fanbase reflects this. He doesn't tell jokes about politics or sex, but rather rejoices in the far funnier areas of life: elderly relatives and answering machines, dads dancing badly at weddings, garlic bread and cheesecake, your mum's HRT...His autobiography is full of this kind of humour and nostalgia, beginning with Kay's first ever driving lesson, taking him back through his Bolton childhood, the numerous jobs he held after school and leading up until the time he passed his driving test and found fame.

I had to put it down at times because I was laughing so much, Peter Kay on top form as he lets us into his early life and shares his inspirations for his TV characters. His narrative allows you to easily picture what he is telling you. Cheer yourself up and buy this book.

I thought this was the best Auto-biography I have read yet because, if you have seen him on his dvd's , you can picture him saying wat he has wrote in the book ( if I make sense! )

All over funny, and doesn't drag on and on about dull boring stories, they are all individual !

 This man is a GENUIS!!
