Urbane. Brilliant. Brave. Funny. Famous. Handsome. Nigel Havers is the real-life charmer you might expect.
In a career that has taken him from a schoolboy production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream to the red carpet on Oscar Night with Chariots of Fire, via starring roles in the West End stage, classic television series like Don’t Wait Up and a cameo in Little Britain, the Hollywood blockbusters that made him a household name are only the beginning.
With characteristic modesty and a captivating eye for the absurd, he treats us to the highlights and lowlights of a life like no other; a life in which chilling reality (watching his father Michael – later the Attorney General – begin his prosecution of the Yorkshire Ripper) and beguiling fantasy (sleeping with ‘Elizabeth Taylor’) continuously and arrestingly collide.
