As in life, Barry Cryer on paper has a fund of anecdotes, stories and reminiscences taken from his 50 years+ in show business. As the veteran he can remember some real old treasures but his fascination with “the business” extends to newer talents too with disasters old and new never far from the page. It’s entertaining and warm hearted, to spend a few hours in the company of such an optimistic and sunny personality is both uplifting and a great pleasure.
