Oh dear! I read this book in November last year, can’t believe it’s been that long since I wrote something on here! Oops.

Anyhow, this is not surprisingly the autobiography of current Radio 2 Breakfast Show host, and sometime bad-boy, Chris Evans - up to a point anyway, this is just Part One with Part Two due later in the year I think.

Like most people, I became aware of Mr Evans when The Big Breakfast hit our screens as the antidote to the dullness of BBC News and TV-AM or whatever was on ITV back then.  For some strange reason, I can still remember getting up a little bit earlier to watch that first show - no idea why!

I’ve just finished reading this autobiography of Russell Brand, and I must admit I really enjoyed it.

I’m not normally a fan of people writing their life story when they are relatively young - after all, how much can they have crammed into their short lives?  Well, Russell Brand shows that there is plenty you can cram into your first thirty or so years and he tells all in this entertaining, insightful and at times quite touching and harrowing read.
