Synopsis

Britain's best loved entertainer tells more of his rollicking adventures. Following on from the enormous success of At My Mother's Knee, Paul O'Grady here continues his extraordinary life story. Aged 18, the young Paul has already been a cat burglar and a boxer, a mischievous altar boy and a civil servant, he's fathered a baby and lost his own dad, he's discovered Liverpool's burgeoning gay club scene as well as what goes on down at the Docks. Having crammed so much into his early life, surely there couldn't be much still left to do? Rest assured, there's never a dull moment in this riotous account of "What Paul Did Next." Today Liverpool; tomorrow—the World!
