About this listen

Brought to you by Penguin.


From a life in comedy to the Glitterball Trophy – Chris McCausland Tells All. The perfect feel-good gift for fans of comedy and Strictly alike.

Already one of the country's best loved comedians, Chris McCausland's participation on Strictly was a phenomenon. But how did the boy from Liverpool end up winning the hearts of the nation?

This is his remarkable story, of a twenty-five-year journey through sight loss to blindness. Of the highs, the lows and the downright hilarious along the way.

From being a lowlife conker dealer, and running his very own bootlegging empire (kind of) . . . to almost becoming a spy for MI5 (really) . . .

And of how he dared himself to try stand-up comedy, and ended up being brilliant on all your favourite TV shows.

Before, of course, he surprised himself, as well as everybody else, when he tried dancing on live TV in front of millions.

Warm, honest, insightful and laugh-out-loud funny, this is the most likeable, cheering and uplifting book of the year!

This was such an engaging listen - so well structured - you can really understand and empathise with each stage of the journey he's been on, told without a trace of self pity and plenty of humour. Considering he couldn't even read the text while recording ti makes the narration even more amazing.

Brilliant! Engaging and so well 'read'

A decent listen, mostly well written with some interesting stories about his life and turning blind, just wish he didn't have to use the sh*** word so often.

A loveable Character
