Nov 26, 2020

Lots of information on Victoria's life from childhood and beyond from the people who knew her best,her family,friends and colleagues. (0 more)

Authorised by Victoria Wood's family

This is an amazing book covering Victoria's life from birth . Features stories and anecdotes from people who worked with Victoria,her family and friends.
Being a huge fan I've read a lot of books about Victoria and this one is the best,so much information that I didn't know and featuring photos I hadn't seen before.
It gives us an insight into what Victoria was like "off camera".
I highly recommend it if like me you're a fan of comedy .

No characters to lock on to and relate to

To infinity and beyond

A journey through time and space that could potentially blow your mind. Explores life as we know it and the potential for life elsewhere.

I dont think I'm clever enough to enjoy this book...it felt like it should be amazing but I struggled to finish it.

My mind just couldn't comprehend the huge ideas being explored. I loved the first half but as we journeyed further into the universe away from things my mind could relate to I found my attention wandered.

I absolutely LOVED this movie! A musical biopic during which the characters may break into an Elton John song at any moment? Sign me up.

If I hadn't already been half in love with Taron Egerton, I would be now. Major kudos to him for the performance, the singing, and the flair with which he portrayed Sir Elton.

My only quibble is that the movie only goes up to the late 80s. I would have liked to have seen it go further, into the 90s and beyond, but I understand why it didn't.

Was Bohemian Rhapsody a better movie? Maybe. But Rocketman was so much more fun.
