Publisher's Synopsis
Urbane. Brilliant. Brave. Funny. Famous. Handsome. Nigel Havers is the real-life charmer you might expect.
In a career that has taken him from a schoolboy production ofA Midsummer Night's Dreamto the red carpet on Oscar Night withChariots of Fire, via starring roles in the West End Stage, classic television series likeDon't Wait Upand a cameo inLittle Britain, the Hollywood blockbusters that made him a household are only the beginning.
With characteristic modesty and a captivating eye for the absurd, he treats us to the highlights and lowlights of a life like no other; a life in which chilling reality (watching his father Michael - later the Attorney General - begin his prosecution of the Yorkshire Ripper) and beguiling fantasy (sleeping with Elizabeth Taylor) continuously and arrestingly collide.
