Hattie- The Authorised Biography of Hattie Jacques by Andy Merriman
Requirements: .ePUB, .MOBI/.AZW reader, 1.18 MB
Overview: The hardback of this first and authorised biography received very good reviews and was immediately reprinted.
It tells the story of one of the heroines of post-war British comedy, on radio, film and TV.Hattie Jacques is known as the billowing, imposing Matron in the “Carry On” films, as the star of such BBC radio classics as ITMA, Educating Archie and Hancock’s Half Hour, and as the fictional sister of Eric Sykes in his long-running TV sitcom.But the formidable, frumpy galleon-in-full-sail screen persona could not have been more at odds with the real-life woman, as this biography reveals for the first time.
She had a tempestuous wartime affair with an American officer, and then a strange marriage to the actor John le Mesurier (Corporal Wilson in “Dad’s Army”) whose dissatisfactions she circumnavigated by moving her lover, a flashy Cockney car dealer, into the matrimonial home.
