The full and honest story from one of the UK's favourite celebrities, including her astonishing fightback from the superbug that nearly killed her Leslie Ash has been one of Britain's most popular actresses for many years now, having made her big break in the film 'Quadrophenia'. In the 1980s she starred in 'Cat's Eyes', but it is as Deb in 'Men Behaving Badly' that she is best known. Yet this hugely successful career is only a part of the story. Her marriage to Lee Chapman has been turbulent, as they lived (and partied) the celebrity lifestyle to the full. Viewed as a 'beaten' spouse, a blonde bimbo and the 'victim' of plastic surgery, she has been pigeon-holed by many but understood by few.

Leslie now campaigns for better hygiene in hospitals. This is an astonishing, moving and yet very funny memoir.

For two months we’d counted and located thousands of earthquakes, looked for changes to anticipate an eruption. The...
