Product Description
Victoria Wood is still an extraordinarily popular star in the UK. This biography is a warts-and-all portrait of a star who is much more complex than she has shown herself to be; whose private life - a mansion in Highgate and trappings to match - is very different to the lower middle class image she portrays as the substance of her show. From her isolated and bizarre childhood, to the explosion of her popularity in her work with Julie Walters, and with interviews with family and people who worked with Victoria in her early days, this book aims to reveal the true Victoria Wood.
