In 1978, after three series, two Christmas specials and a full-length feature film of Porridge, writers Dick Clement and Ian La Frenais finally released Fletcher from prison. Going Straight went on to win a BAFTA and attract an audience of over 15 million. Fletch is out. After spending three years, eight months and four days at Her Majesty's pleasure, the old lag is out of Slade Prison on parole. However, life on the outside is not going to be easy - he even finds Mr McKay in the buffet car of his train home. Will his carefully buried nest egg still be there? Will he be able to manipulate his family (including a 17-year-old son - played be Nicholas Lyndhurst) as easily as the gullible Slade Prison lags? Will he welcome old cell-mate, Lenny Godber, now a long-distance lorry driver dating his daughter Ingrid? Or will the delights of freedom make him yearn for the company of thieves, fraudsters and even screws?

"Cluck The Undercover Chicken" is a love story. Wait, that isn't it. It's an action adventure filled with thrills, intrigue and danger. Well, it does have that. It has a hero that kids can look up to. That definitely isn't true, despite what that "hero" thinks. Sigh...here's the truth. It's a story about a rooster who can't stand being called a rooster, who also spends his time arguing with the writer of the book, while trying to save his planet (made of a mutated egg shell) from a crazed hen who wants equal rights...as long as she is absolute ruler. And you think you have problems. "Cluck" is a book that middle aged-kids (and perhaps some adults) will enjoy. An agent with "The Eggency," Cluck is the best at what he does. Sadly, his ego is as massive as his skills. Besides being blinded by his arrogance, Cluck is helped along by "ST," the writer of his adventures and a voice only he can hear. While this causes some to question his sanity, together they make an uneasy, but successful partnership. When a hen named "The Fan" (named because she has a deadly hand fan with her at all times) forms a worldwide cult in order to take over the planet, it's up to Cluck to toss a feather in her plans...if his ego doesn't trip him up first. Written for the young with laughs built in for all, "Cluck" is a book meant to be an unique reading experience; a quick read that you will remember for a long time.

On 23 May 1999 in the midst of a World Wrestling Federation stunt, wrestler Owen Hart plummeted eight stories from the top of Kansas City's Kemper Arena to his death on the hard canvas of the wrestling ring. His death, witnessed by 16,000 live audience members and millions more on TV lead to a brutal seventeen-month legal battle of finger pointing for responsibility. In this book, Owen's wife speaks poignantly about her days by Owen's side, the life that they created for their two children, and the tremendous loss that she has been confronted with every day. From their days as high school sweethearts to Owen's performances in sold-out stadiums, she illuminates the tragic story of this modern gladiator and his horrific demise brought on by the neglect of the professional wrestling world.
