My Lynda
Lynda Bellingham died in her husband Michael's arms on 19th October 2014. Lynda touched many lives in her memoir, There's Something I've Been Dying to Tell You, and in My Lynda, Michael tells his side of the story. He talks movingly about their ten years together and describes how, in the past year, he has struggled to cope. He shares candidly his experience of grief, offering hope and support to others who have lost partners and loved ones. His is a book to comfort those who loved Lynda, to tell the missing pieces of their life together, to write about how they both confronted the news of her illness, and how he managed to continue since that moment of hearing that she had a teminal illness.
Lost and Found
'Looking back, perhaps the single biggest problem was fear. Fear of failure, fear of other people - but mostly fear of myself. It has taken many years to discover who I really am. It's never too late to find yourself, however lost you may be ...' In Lynda Bellingham's blisteringly honest autobiography, the much-loved actress and Loose Women panellist reveals the truth about her life, including her search for her birth mother, only to lose her again to Alzheimer's, and her many years married to an abusive man while playing the 'nation's mum' in the Oxo adverts. But Lynda never lost her sense of humour, and among the darker moments she recalls hilarious anecdotes from her time on stage and screen. Lost and Found is an inspiring story of getting through the tough times with the strong spirit of a survivor, and finally finding true love.
Tell Me Tomorrow
A poignant story of love across three genrations. Meredith Lee is one of the most successful women in television and seems to have it all. But behind the tirelessly successful facade lies the story of a woman who nearly lost everything and struggles to keep love in her life. She even struggles to find love in herself. This is a story of a woman's journey to discover her true self, demonstrating the importance of love and acceptance within the complexities of family life. It is also about love, where to look for it and how to hold on to it when it is found.
There's Something I've Been Dying to Tell You
By turns, it is riotous, deeply serious, practical and sad. Reading it is like being at her kitchen table with a glass of wine to hand. (Daily Telegraph) Lynda Bellingham was a tremendously gifted storyteller with a rich collection of tales of love, loss and laughter and this memoir brings her kind heart, courage and emotion to the page in vivid detail. There's Something I've Been Dying To Tell You is a brave memoir about Lynda's battle with cancer, facing death she found joy and shared it with millions. Her story is an affecting and at times heart-breaking one but it is so often laugh-out-loud too and ultimately the way Lynda told her life story serves as a great inspiration to us all. Wove...
The Boy I Love
A superb evocation of theatre life from a naturally gifted storyteller, the beloved Lynda Bellingham. It is the summer of '82 as Sally Thomas prepares to leave her job at the British Drama League in London and head off to the North of England for her very first season in repertory as an Assistant Stage Manager at the beautiful old theatre in Crewe. Flung into this new world, Sally soon finds her feet, thanks to her own steady, unspoilt nature and to the company of her best friend, Jeremy. One of the first lessons she learns is that the other actors barely need tuition in the art of stage-fighting, since they are quite adept at stabbing each other in the back. When Jeremy falls suddenly and dangerously in love, Sally needs to grow up - fast. A shadow is falling over the theatre, sparing no one, and a tragedy is gathering pace in the darkness behind the stage. The Boy I Loveis a superb evocation of theatre and real life that will stay with you long after you've read it. Be warned: it may just break your heart.
Lost and Found
"Lynda Bellingham is much-loved as a regular on ITV's Loose Woman and for the lead role in Calendar Girls on the West End stage and touring around the country. And of course she first became the nation's favourite during her 16 years on our screens as the 'Oxo Mum'. But life hasn't always been easy for Lynda. After her first marriage, which lasted only a year, she fell head-over-heels in love with a fiery Italian waiter who became her second husband. They had two beautiful boys together, but while playing the perfect mum on TV, Lynda suffered for years from her husband's jealous temper. With remarkable honesty, Lynda tells the story of this and of her journey to discover who she truly is. Yet her sense of humour has never left her, and Lost and Found is full of tales from Loose Women, and other gossip of the stage and screen. Lost and Found is ultimately the story of a survivor. It took longer than she'd have liked, perhaps, but Lynda has finally found wisdom and maturity, career success and true love. Her story will captivate and inspire all women who also regret that life and love don't always run smooth."
