It feels very fresh to read something that feels like having a conversation with the author, Brendan O'Carroll has managed to do that perfectly here. He has written four films and nine comedy shows, including The Course (1995) and The Last Wedding (1999). Give them a feckin' great time with the hilarious and remarkably honest autobiography from the star of Mrs Brown's Boys, Brendan O'CarrollA story of humour born of pain, success wrung from adversity and of the steely ambition beneath the affable exterior - Sunday Life__________ 'What? In his own unique voice, Brendan O'Carroll strings together the threads of his life, a helter-skelter story tracing the helter-skelter journey of a scrawny kid from Finglas, Dublin to TV screens around the world . One thing I love about the show is how much of his immediate family (partner/kids/old friends) are involved and that really comes through with the inner warmth and heart of the show.He has also published seven novels, including The Mammy, The Scrapper and The Young Wan - a number of which have been translated into 12 languages. Told with warmth, humour, a touch of mischievousness - and more than a few coincidences - this is the fascinating story of the one and only, Brendan O'Carroll.

A lovely funny book about Brendan O’Carroll’s life up to the point where he begin’s the Mrs Brown’s Boys TV show. The show won the comedy award at the NTAs five times won three BAFTA Scotland awards and in 2012 won a BAFTA TV Award for Best Situation Comedy.

Just like the show so brilliantly expresses, Brendan's first autobiography, the real story behind the man who became Mrs Brown, combines uplifting heart, warmth and hilarity. Having started a long series under a pen name is was almost impossible to change horses in mid-stream. I live in the US and have watched his show hundreds of times over and over and found out he had books I jump right on finding them and found he had audio books that was even better because the man himself was reading them! With that in mind, she has decided to rework her entire book portfolio and release it again with new titles, new covers and much more critical edits than ever before.

Back in the 1960/70's Lots of people hated the series "Till Death do us Part" Staring Warren Mitchell and Anthony Booth. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average.I always wondered about the background of Brendon O'Caroll, especially as I have worked in the area of Finglas where he is from , and where Mrs Brown is based. I loved the early Mrs Brown Series and this book incorporates the nature and personal attributes of the whole cast while building up a fabulous description of Brendan and his many qualities.
