Synopsis

Shortlisted for The Sheridan Morley Book Prize 2015

From his harrowing childhood as a Jewish boy in Nazi Germany, where he witnessed the horrors of Kristallnacht and Gestapo brutality, to his escape and subsequent life in London, where his antics were no less bizarre or comical than those of his most famous character the hapless Spanish waiter Manuel Andrew Sachs has lived a truly extraordinary life.

Recounting hilarious tales of his early foray into the world of showbiz and his time at the most notorious hotel in television history, this delightful autobiography charts Sachs's conquest of stage, screen and radio, in a career that has seen him showcase his talent and versatility alongside a galaxy of stars. He also speaks candidly about the distressing intrusion into his private life in 2008 an incident to which he responded with such dignity that it only served to furtherenhance the public's affection for him.

A charming, witty and utterly compelling memoir, I Know Nothing! reveals the twists and turns of the fascinating life of one of Britain's best-loved actors and is a must-read for Fawlty Towers fans everywhere.
