A Matter of Life and Death - Or How to Wean A Man off Football

Informationen zum Autor Alistair is probably best known to British audiences for The Big Impression which was, for four years, one of BBC1's top-rating comedy programmes - winning numerous awards, including a BAFTA. He started out as a stand-up comic, and since his success with The Big Impression has appeared regularly on television and radio. In the Autumn of 2009, he'll be embarking on a stand-up tour around the UK. Ronni Ancona was the joint winner, with Alistair, of the prestigious Variety Club Comedy Award for their work on The Big Impression. Since then she has worked extensively in television, radio and film, both in comedy and drama, and was named Best Actress at The British Comedy Awards in 2003. Her writing credits include the BAFTA award-winning The Sketch Show. Ronni lives in London with her husband and two daughters. A Matter of Life and Death: Or How to Wean A Man off Football , from comedy stars Ronni Ancona and Alistair McGowan, is a hilarious book on relationships - wrangles, rows and football. Zusammenfassung Ronni Ancona is fed up with football: the way it dominates TV, takes over men's brains and scuppers any chance of romance. Ronni institutes replacement techniques - walks, culture and endless rounds of toast and Marmite - but what happens when a man gives up the thing he loves most?
