Paul O’Grady Biography Launch With Jo Brand, Malcolm Prince
‘Paul O’Grady – Not The Same Without You’ by Malcolm Prince – Book Launch hosted by Jo Brand
Join us for this exclusive book launch hosted by Jo Brand, to celebrate the release of the brand new biography of the much-missed Paul O’Grady. All tickets include a signed hardback copy of the book (RRP £22), available exclusively prior to publication on 6 November.
It’s more than two years since the much-loved entertainer, broadcaster and national treasure Paul O’Grady died, and yet his voice still echoes ― in laughter, in memory, in the unshakeable affection of millions. In the deeply personal and revealing biography endorsed by his daughter Sharyn, Paul’s longtime collaborator Malcolm Prince draws on two decades of friendship to tell the story of the man behind the icon: the sharp-witted, fiercely loyal, irrepressibly funny, and deeply private individual, known to his close friends as ‘Savage’ ― and to the public, in various guises, as the prime time TV star, the nation’s dog-loving agony uncle, and a Sunday afternoon radio companion.
This is a portrait not just of a gifted entertainer, but of a complex, fiercely loyal, and endlessly curious man, reflecting on a friendship built on shared laughter, private rants, righteous fury, long phone calls, and a healthy dose of gossip ― and on a professional legacy that still feels astonishing in its range and resonance. Host Jo Brand will interview the author, and audience members will have the opportunity to ask questions about the book and Paul O’Grady’s incredible life and career.
Packed with warmth, humour and never-before-heard stories, Not The Same Without You captures the full measure of a man who defied convention, challenged institutions, made mischief ― and made us all feel like we were his best pal. Author Malcolm Prince will be available after the show for a book signing.
