Description
This is the raunchy and often humourous autobiography of the working-class heroine, Barbara Windsor. Known for her roles in the "Carry On" films, she reveals the secrets of her life and loves: her friendship with Kenneth Williams, her affair with Sid James, her involvement with the Kray twins, her stormy marriage to Ronnie Knight and her newfound happiness with her second husband, Stephen Hollings. In this book she recalls her East End childhood, her days as part of the "Carry On" team and other highlights of her acting career; parts in Ken Russell's "The Boyfriend" and Joan Littlewood's "Oh What a Lovely War". Despite experiencing much sadness in her life, she emerges as a resourceful and determinedly cheerful woman.
