Summary

Shortlisted for the British Book Awards, Biography of the Year, 2009.

Julie Walters has been described as the nation's most popular actress and comedienne. She has been delighting us on screen and on stage for over 25 years and - thanks to her undoubted talent, infectious spirit and self-deprecating humour - we have taken her to our hearts.

Now she tells us her own story, in her own words. She was born in 50s Birmingham, daughter of an austere Irish Catholic mother. She was sent to school in a convent and from a young age always wanted to be an actress - but to appease her mother she first went into nursing. This didn't last for long, though, and she soon went to join The Everyman Theatre in Liverpool. West End success with Educating Rita followed, and she quickly replicated her success on film, playing opposite Michael Caine. Julie's collaborations with her close friend Victoria Wood have given us, among others, the unforgettable character 'Mrs Overall' in Acorn Antiques.

Julie has also starred in a range of films including Billy Elliot, Calendar Girls and Mamma Mia!, and she has recently charmed a new generation of fans playing "Mrs. Weasley" in the Harry Potter films.

This, her long-awaited autobiography, candidly reveals all the highs and lows in an extraordinary life. It is a remarkable piece of writing: funny, painfully felt, moving, warm, fiercely intelligent and - above all - wholly entertaining.

Full of LOL moments and heartfelt sentiment

A really enjoyable listen and pleased it was read by Julie herself to provide the emphasis as it was intended. Will listen again in a few months.

beautiful profound and warm

I loved this book, it's a gem or raw realness..a made up term but it feels so right for this book. Julie reads her own life story, with no holds barred! What a wonderful life, what a gem of an actress. An inspiration!

Shame it wasn’t longer

Great narration, sadness and joy all balled up in the feel of a friendly natter over coffee. A real shame it’s not a full version as I would love to hear more.

Very entertaining but too short! Would have loved more. Honest and funny with personal stories behind some of her more famous roles.
