From the boy from Liverpool to

Blind from sight loss, he rose through comedy, bootlegging ventures (kind of), nearly joining MI5 (really) and ultimately stole the nation’s hearts. Warm, honest, uproariously funny and unashamedly uplifting — this is the life behind the jokes and the curtain on the dancefloor.

Already one of the country's best loved comedians, Chris McCausland's participation on Strictly was a phenomenon. But how did the boy from Liverpool end up winning the hearts of the nation?
This is his remarkable story, of a twenty-five-year journey through sight loss to blindness. Of the highs, the lows and the downright hilarious along the way.
From being a lowlife conker dealer, and running his very own bootlegging empire (kind of) . . . to almost becoming a spy for MI5 (really) . . .
And of how he dared himself to try stand-up comedy, and ended up being brilliant on all your favourite TV shows.
Before, of course, he surprised himself, as well as everybody else, when he tried dancing on live TV in front of millions.
Warm, honest, insightful and laugh-out-loud funny, this is the most likeable, cheering and uplifting book of the year!
