Micky Flanagan is one of Britain's best-loved cheeky-chappy
comedians, thanks to his stand-up routines about how he's gone from
growing up in London's East End in the 1970s to his life now in
middle-class suburbia. To date he has two sell-out tours under his
belt, nominations from the British Comedy Awards and the Edinburgh
Fringe (for Best Comedy Newcomer), not to mention regular stints on
8 Out of 10 Cats, Mock the Week and The Last Leg, as well as guest
appearances on The Jonathan Ross Show, Alan Carr: Chatty Man, The
Graham Norton Show and The One Show. Yet a career as a professional
comedian was not something that he had ever dreamed of when, as a
troublesome teen, he left school aged 15 to work in a fish market.
Abi Smith looks at how Micky, who was laughed at by his teachers
when he said he wanted to be a vet, has triumphed from his early
days working as a fish porter in the East End and as a dishwasher
in New York. In this page-turning biography you'll also discover
why his mum labelled him a drama queen, and how he tried his hand
at various professions - including trainee teacher and painter and
decorator - before having the last laugh by becoming one of the
country's most popular funny men. So, pour yourself a cup of Rosie
Lee, take the weight off your plates and prepare for a right
giraffe as you read this engaging tale of 'an East Boy done good'.
