What do you do when everything you know & believe in crashes around you in a hail of fists & boots flying chairs & broken glass? & not just once but seemingly every time you leave the house? When it seemed that no one was listening that Matthew Collins was just another white face from a council estate & that there was nowhere else to go & nothing else to do the violence & racism of the far-right offered him an alluring escape from the mediocrity of school work & boredom. In 1980s Britain the belligerent sentiments of a few hundred lonely white men went almost unnoticed but this tiny minority had grand designs. Ignored & marginalised & fuelled by alcohol & violence they built a party that would go on to hold seats in council chambers across England & in the European Parliament. Hidden behind those large Union Jack flags were individuals
- Collins included
- seemingly prepared to bomb & kill to make their violent dreams a reality. But what do you do when you realise that the burning hatred vehement patriotism & thirst for confrontation that haunts you
- from the playground to the pub to the ballot box
- stems from your own insecurities & isolation? The answer? You switch sides.

The hardback of this first & authorised biography received very good reviews & immediately reprinted. It tells the story of one of the heroines of post-war British comedy on radio film & TV. Hattie Jacques is known as the billowing imposing Matron in the Carry On films as the star of such BBC radio classics as ITMA Educating Archie & Hancocks Half Hour & as the fictional sister of Eric Sykes in his long-running TV sitcom. But the formidable frumpy galleon-in-full-sail screen persona could not have been more at odds with the real-life woman as this biography reveals for the first time. She had a tempestuous wartime affair with an American officer & then a strange marriage to the actor John le Mesurier (Corporal Wilson in Dads Army) whose dissatisfactions she circumnavigated by moving her lover a flashy Cockney car dealer into the matrimonial home. But as well as being warm & sexy & generous she was also owing to her lifelong struggle with her weight needy & melancholic & rueful that her size persistently typecast her & excluded her from many roles. This biography has been written with full co-operation from Hatties son & show business friends like Barbara Windsor Clive Dunn Galton & Simpson & Ian Carmichael. ...
