About this listen

 Linda Smith (1958-2006) was a national treasure and voted "wittiest person alive" on Radio 4. From her childhood in Erith, featuring her "sweet smiling fascist grandmother", and holidays abroad (to the Isle of Wight), to her early stand-up days and comedy career, Warren Lakin recalls Linda's story and their life together.

Warren was Linda's lover, companion, and chauffeur from their first meeting, driving her to her tour, radio, and TV gigs, and later to hospital appointments as her cancer took hold: here he reads the moving and often hilarious story of a life lived with wit, humour, and grace under pressure.

Interesting info of life in comedy, however the couples journey to favourite little spots is cute. I can also relate with my partner having 5 types of cancer but did not have this ending which I dreaded since diagnosis. Thank you for sharing this I heard the emotion your voice.
