James Whale is back, this time in paperback! Almost a Celebrity is the no-holds-barred autobiography of radio shock jock James Whale, a man who, for over thirty years, has never been afraid to say the unsayable. Written in his typically deadpan style, Almost a Celebrity charts James' rise to the top - with plenty of trademark rants along the way - from his Surrey childhood, where he avoided school by hanging out in Soho strip joints, through his humble beginnings in local radio, via the eponymous TV show which made his name, to his current status as late-night king of the airwaves. Throughout his life, James has never been a stranger to controversy. His outspoken opinions have led to numerous TV and radio watchdog enquiries, death threats, and even his arrest. In 2000, he confronted his toughest opponent so far, when he was diagnosed with cancer and given only months to live. An inspiration to millions, James Whale is a genuine man of the people. And - as usual - there's no stopping him from telling his story in his own engaging, inimitable way.
