A frank memoir from the most famous fox in showbusiness.
He's been described as "charming, well-bred, devilishly handsome, witty, lovable, elegant, an international superstar". And that's just by Basil himself. Now, at last, one of the most enigmatic of showbusiness legends is ready to share his story with his millions of fans.
It was Basil's television show that first catapulted him to fame and his partnerships with Mr Rodney, Mr Derek, Mr Roy, Mr Howard and Mr Billy were to bring him enormous success. But few suspected that behind Basil's carefree façade lurked an international man of mystery.
For the first time Basil speaks openly about his links to British intelligence and how he risked all for the sake of his country.
He also describes his glittering Hollywood career, his sell-out Las Vegas showcases and his award-winning stint on Broadway in 'Elephant Man: The Musical'. And he talks frankly about his friendships with many of the most famous names in the world - from Joan Collins to Frank Sinatra and Liberace, from the British Royal family to Madonna.
A tribute to Basil's sly wit and his unparalleled storytelling ability, this book is sure to appeal not only to his many fans but to anyone who has ever dreamed of making it big and wants to know how it feels.
