[edit] BRUCE
This is Bruce's first account of his whole life, from his Red Cross debut at 14 to nearly two-thirds of a century later. The book is full of anecdotes, honest appraisals of the tough times, including the failed marriages and affairs, and comments on entertainment today.
Bruce Forsyth is known to countless millions, across four generations, as the 'face' of such family entertainment classics as The Generation Game, Play Your Cards Right and The Price is Right. But his is an amazing story that spans more than two thirds of the twentieth century. In the late 1950s, over half of Britain would tune into Sunday Night at the London Palladium. In a few short weeks, it made Bruce Forsyth a star. It had been a long hard slog since his debut as 'Boy Bruce the Mighty Atom' at the age of fourteen in 1942 - working for the Red Cross during the war and doing National Service after, and playing every 'number three' theatre, concert party, summer season, double act and review known to man. But he's been at the very top ever since. This is Bruce's first-ever account of his whole life and people he's met, worked with and loved. From touring round the country in an old Wolsey with a caravan in tow to reinventing the US game show for UK TV, the book will be chock full of anecdotes, honest apparaisals of the tough times, the failed marriages and affairs, comments on entertainment today, what it takes to be a comedian at the height of his powers.
