West, Timothy

£22.00

Timothy West and Prunella Scales are – first and foremost – actors. But their finest roles, it turns out, have always been as husband and wife! Timothy West charts the course of their lives, from the years before they met, to their secret courting and marriage. Diving into their journey to establishing themselves at the heart of British theatre, television and film over the next seventy years, most notably in Fawlty Towers and Brass. Crammed full of funny, poignant, jaw-dropping and occasionally painful stories, ‘Pru & Me’ also vividly recounts their later blaze of glory that introduced the world to the real Tim and Pru, via Great Canal Journeys.

Description

After first meeting over sixty years ago while filming a costume drama for the BBC, Prunella Scales and Timothy West have enjoyed a partnership like no other; from appearing together in hit sitcoms to bringing up two children, they have chalked up an almost endless list of professional triumphs.

In this book, Tim traces their united steps through life professionally and personally, and covers the highs and lows of caring for Pru since her dementia diagnosis, twenty years ago. As with all things in life, she and Tim have tackled it together, often with a glass of wine in hand and almost always with a smile.
