Synopsis

Stan Boardman is a UK stand-up comedian. His life-story is extraordinary and inspiring. As a three year old boy, during the Second World War, the communal bomb shelter in which he was sat took a direct hit from a Nazi bomb, killing 18 people inside. Stan should never have survived, yet miraculously he did. This book documents how he faced those traumas, his struggles and successes, the people he met, and life on the comedy circuit in the 70's, 80's and 90's. We discover the laughs too, and also, an unlikely friendship with Hollywood 'hellraiser' Oliver Reed. What really happened that night on the infamous 'Des O' Connor Show' and his joke about a 'Fokke-Wulf' airplane? Was he really banned from television? It is a story about the man behind the laughter, and it will surprise many.
