May I Have Your Attention, Please?: The Autobiography - Softcover
The warm, hilarious story of the Gavin and Stacey cocreator and star
As far back as he can remember James Corden has only ever wanted to be in one place: in front of an audience, doing something to make them cry, shout, scream, or giggle uncontrollably—but it wasn't that easy getting there. Growing up, his dad would drive him up and down to London for auditions, sometimes three or four times a week, only to be met with constant rejections. Even the teenage distractions of girls, forming his own pop group, attempted (and failed) shoplifting, or the endless detentions he'd get from exasperated teachers didn't put him off. He knew where he wanted to be and he'd keep on trying until he got there, and here is the story of how he did it. From his time as one of the founding players of his school's first ever rugby team to nationwide fame as the loveably loud Smithy in the award-winning Gavin and Stacey, this is a tenderly—and very funnily—told story of what it’s like to try, try, and try again and get there in the end.

Review:
"A propulsive read ...his garrulous tone survives the transition to the page... there are open-hearted moments, especially about his family, that are rather moving" * The Times * "What hoists his book several rungs above most showbiz autobiographies is his willingness to address his failings... by the end, I suspect that they [the readers] - like me - will have been won over by his candour and charm" * Daily Mail *
