A Likely Story by Rodney Bewes
By turns funny, charming and sad, this is the story of a sensitive and sickly lad's northern working-class childhood and subsequent rise to fame. Along the way, we hear of his laddish behaviour in swinging London in the company of the biggest stars of the day, including how he climbed Big Ben to hang a pair of knickers on the hand of the clock; of his troubled relationship with "Likely Lads" co-star James Bolam; and many celebrity stories, featuring Ralph Richardson, Laurence Olivier, Rod Steiger, Tom Courtney and Raquel Welch. "A Likely Story" is everything you would expect from the autobiography of a moon-struck clown.
Rodney Bewes was born in 1937 and has been working in theatre, film and television for over 50 years. Appearing in the hugely successful sitcom The Likely Lads and its sequel as well as the hit show Dear Mother-Love Albert which he also wrote and produced. He has appeared in numerous films - including Billy Liar - , plays and one man-shows. He lives in Henley-on-Thames and Cornwall.
