Whereas it had come in the night and left the other boys with chiselled, stubbly chins and deep masculine voices, I’d been left with a huge pair of knockers and the voice of a pensioner.’ Alan Carr\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAlan Carr grew up in one of the most boring towns in England – Northampton. A place known for making shoes. It was also known for its football club, Northampton Town FC. Alan’s dad as manager of the club was a local hero. A dream come true for most lads, but not Alan. Alan wore glasses and had man boobs at 14. He did not like P.E.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn his very first book, Alan tells his life story, (‘oh and what a life’) with his unique twist of natural, observational humour –\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e‘I’m not saying I’m a fantasist but there have been times when things that I’ve seen on television when I was younger have tended to seep into my subconscious and blended into my own life. I remember telling my Mum about the time I stopped that woman from having a diamond encrusted necklace stolen and she’d say ‘No Alan, that was Poirot.’\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith his tongue-in-cheek, end of pier humour that made him famous, Alan describes an ordinary life in bursts of technicolour. His journey from awkward schoolboy hiding his man-boobs on the pitch, drinking tea with the dinner ladies and working in a call centre, to becoming one of our best-loved comedians likened to the great Frankie Howerd, will make his book a guaranteed tickler with a laugh-out-loud gag on every page.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alan Carr","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47284806484117,"sku":"9780007287802","price":15.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0484\/3175\/9509\/files\/9780007287802.png?v=1776992315","url":"https:\/\/harpercollins.com.au\/products\/9780007287802_look-who-it-is-my-story","provider":"HarperCollins AU","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
