Eddie Mair is, by his own account, one of Britain's most beloved broadcasters.

Born in Dundee, Scotland, he has worked in radio all his adult life. From the foothills of commercial radio in his hometown, through the sunlit uplands of the BBC in Scotland, he has reached the peaks of his profession, with BBC network radio in London. And he's never afraid to work a metaphor beyond endurance.

In addition he's appeared on most of the BBC's TV channels, including ones that are no longer on TV. He witnessed the handover of Hong Kong and once asked Arnold Schwarzenegger a question - though he takes no responsibility for either.

For nearly twenty years he has been at the helm of Radio 4's PM: a nightly news round up that means Eddie works for just one hour a day, giving him plenty time to knock together these diaries.

Whether he's interviewing politicians, getting people to share their personal experiences, or just imparting his favourite zesty chicken recipes, Eddie is never happier than when he is at the microphone. Except when he is at the microphone with a large martini.

In truth, his neediness is an irritation to everyone who knows him and if you buy this book he might get out of their hair.

Eddie's other work, as a humanitarian and tireless, secret worker for charity is not mentioned in these pages.©2017 Eddie Mair Biographies & Memoirs Entertainment & Celebrities Entertainment & Performing Arts Şöhret Eğlence Komik

Indisputably the funniest man I've ever worked with (Robert Peston)

A journalist's eye and comedian's wit makes this a brilliant book. A great audio book.

Fabulous, funny and fun.

Any regular listener to BBC Radio 4 will not be disappointed. Any regular listener to BBC Radio 1 will find some of the words challenging but should give it a try anyway.

A great voice for a writer

Eddie is one of the very best broadcasters in UK radio. Razor sharp, laugh out loud funny and a real warmth that shines through. 10/10 brilliant.

Real radio gold

This book is a compendium of Eddie's Radio Times columns.
Contains typical Eddie humour that I have come to love, over the year's of PM.

Not what I was expecting

Unlike Rupert Piston, Eddie has the stamina to read the whole work. And very entertaining it is too.
Rupert can only manage the first and last chapter of his offering.

At least he read it himself

Bir sorun oluştu. Lütfen birkaç dakika sonra tekrar deneyin.
