About this product

Product Information

The number one bestselling autobiography by national treasure Bob Mortimer. 'Delightful... it's a precarious world, but And Away... is a heartfelt testament to the magic of finding your happy place within it' - Sunday Times 'Everyone will love this book' - Caitlin Moran, Times Magazine 'Wonderfully entertaining and surprisingly poignant' - GQ Bob Mortimer's life was trundling along happily until suddenly in 2015 he was diagnosed with a heart condition that required immediate surgery and forced him to cancel an upcoming tour. The episode unnerved him, but forced him to reflect on his life so far. This is the framework for his hilarious and moving memoir, And Away... Although his childhood in Middlesbrough was normal on the surface, it was tinged by the loss of his dad, and his own various misadventures (now infamous from his appearances on Would I Lie to You?), from burning down the family home to starting a short-lived punk band called Dog Dirt. As an adult, he trained as a solicitor and moved to London. Though he was doing pretty well (the South London Press once crowned him 'The Cockroach King' after a successful verdict), a chance encounter in a pub in the 1980s with a young comedian going by the name Vic Reeves set his life on a different track. And now, six years on, the heart condition that once threatened his career has instead led to new success on BBC2's Gone Fishing. Warm, profound, and irrepressibly funny, And Away... is Bob's full life story (with a few lies thrown in for good measure.)

Really Enjoyed this Peek into Robert's Life
Couldn't put it down - Bob has an easy and engaging style, and it evoked a good deal of nostalgia too. His description of childhood and university very much resonated - but 16 sugars in your tea Bob - really? You'll make yourself ill my man... :) Brilliant. A really enjoyable read. Looking forward to the next instalment.

Like me I'm from the North East and Bob Mortimer has been and always will be one of my favourite comedians along side Vic Reeves.....After watching The Big Night Out Tour Show on TV I was totally hooked on these guys, I actually saw a lot mannerisms in Bob Mortimer in me and from that point I couldn't get enough of Vic & Bob, both my idols, and reading about Bob's life from a young age has been an eye opener and so damn funny. Not a trouble maker just wanted to have fun with his mates which like me again being shy (And Still Am) I find it hard to mix with people so I avoid parties, breakfasts with my boss and the work boys, I just can't mingle so it's a breath of fresh air to read about a great guy who in simple life terms suffered too, but if you are a Bob Mortimer fan I most definitely ...

It's worth getting and reading the fire work act he did which almost burnt his house down a dangerous act but like Bob looking back on it I better he chuckles over it.....a brilliant guy, a brilliant entertainer, and this is what we need on TV......oh and Catterick that was truly brilliant which he adds in his book Highly Recommend Most Definitely

The best autobiography
What a brilliant book to read. Easy to get list within it. Every time I look round my husband has his nose in this book. I’m sure he has read it through at least half a dozen times. The book itself was exact as described in excellent condition.

Fun read by a nice man.
Enjoyed this book as I'm a big fan of goofyness and blokes having a "daft laugh". So am also a fan of Bob Mortimer. Also, reading about the rise of a working class lad resonates.
