The moving, intimate memoir by the nation's favourite presenter

For a long time, I felt that I couldn't write this book. More recently, there was a very painful consideration - I knew where it would eventually have to go. I've decided only the truth can set me free; it has taken a long time to become clear, but now is the right time to share it.

I look back with nostalgic delight on my life, introduce you to my remarkable family, take you behind the scenes of some of my television homes over the years, and hopefully show that life, it seems, is what you make it.
