Whatever Happened to Barry Chambers is a dramatized memoir. In 1944, when only four, Barry is left at The King's (The Cathedral) School Boarding House in Peterborough, his mother having discovered her husband is a bigamist. Beautiful but manipulative, his mother makes a new life for herself, eventually in London, becoming a successful fashion designer. She gets married again, this time to a Jewish business man - and pretends that she and her son are Jewish. Barry is brought up as an Anglican meanwhile and has to cope with loneliness, bullying, a sexual predator at school, his `loveable rogue' of a step-father and his mother's erratic behaviour. Barry becomes confused about his identity and as he grows older is attracted to the wrong set.
