Two autobiographies. Actor Gabriel Byrne's Walking with Ghosts and photographer Don McCullin's Unreasonable Behaviour.

I've just had a look on the BBC website.
Apparently VW was on DID twice.
The first time in 1987 she was interviewed by Michael Parkinson, not Sue Lawley.

I remember my mom commenting that VW wasn't as she expected when she heard her on Desert Island Discs.
That was years ago, Sue Lawley was the presenter.
Incidentally, my mom once spoke to Sue in Wolverhampton M&S. She was very excited! (My mother, how Sue felt is not on record.)

Alima I don't think that I could bring myself to read it.
I can't even watch dinnerladies anymore.
She was so well loved wasn't she?
She seems to have made a connection with so many women.
RIP Victoria.

Rod Stewart was surprisingly good and very entertaining reading...

Let’s Do It by Jasper Rees. The authorised biography of Victoria Wood. Couldn’t put it down, quite detailed and surprising to read she wasn’t how I envisioned. So very sad at the end.

I enjoyed The Adventures of the Crumpsall Kid by Mike Harding - witty, funny and some sad stuff.

Reckless by Chrissie Hynd.

These are more modern autobiographies but worth a read.
