About this product

Product Information

Gordon Kaye is famous for his portrayal of the cafe boss in Allo, Allo , a BBC sitcom and stage show. This is his story of how a shy working-clas Yorkshire boy fought his way up to become the extrovert Rene, discussing the knocks he took along the way. Perhaps the most devastating blow was the recent tabloid revelations about his private life, but Gordon Kaye won the sympathy and admiration of the country by facing up to the situation and telling the truth about his homosexuality. He tells the whole story with wit and compassion and also talks about the other stars he has known and worked with - his friendship with Pat Phoenix and how she got him his first big TV break on Coronation Street ; his work with John Inman on Are You Being Served and there is a wealth of anecdotes about people such as Les Dawson, John Cleese, Marty Feldman, Max Wall, Joan Syms and many more.

  • Smiling from the start

    A must for any one Gordon Kaye / allo allo fan. From as young as I can remember allo allo was always a comfort for me when sick or feeling sad it was always my pick me up and that would not have been possible with out this brilliant man. It's a pleasure to know more about the man and how it all started. This is a true gem of a book and is now pride of my collection. Thank you
