Now in her late eighties, her sheer dedication to her work and her love of acting has guaranteed her a string of accolades and awards. At the centre of this industry is Dame Thora's diary, a huge book which she keeps with her at all times, next to the telephone which rings constantly. Not in the Diary reveals her reflections and her behind-the-scenes stories, from glamourous engagements to domestic and family commitments, the material that never finds its way into the diary of events. For all those who delight in Thora's unmistakeable voice and personality, this audiobook will be pure joy.
