About this listen

My Name'5 Doddie is a humbling, courageous and very funny celebration of a remarkable man. The extraordinary, life-affirming autobiography of Doddie Weir is an absolute must-listen – rugby fan or not.

Rugby legend and MND campaigner Doddie Weir has always lived life to the full. On the pitch, Doddie's irresistible talent took him to the heart of every team he graced and brought him 61 caps for Scotland. He won fans all over the world with his sportsmanship, humour and boundless energy. Then, in June 2017, Doddie made the announcement that he had been diagnosed with MND. With no cure and almost no treatment of any sort available, Doddie set out to do what he could to change that, tackling the issue head on with his trademark positivity and good humour. Since then, the My Name'5 Doddie Foundation has raised and pledged millions towards research into this dreadful condition and his tireless campaigning has transcended the world of sport.

Narrator was really good. Laugh out loud moments. Doddie is a Gem of a MAN.

This book is a must listen to. I listened, I laughed, I cried. Doddie has a fantastic story to tell, it’s not all about MND but he does talk about it. The narrator is clear and I liked his voice. If I could’ve listened to this in one go I would have. This is one book I will listen to again.

Every emotion going!

Well narrated, but a story that I chuckled to, many times, what a full life, but also with some sadness, Doddie will be in my memory for a very long time

Best listen ever

Excellently narrated by Andrew Cotter. Doddie, hope you’re still fighting it for years to come and help find a treatment for MND

Very funny and sad at the same time.
