About this title

Synopsis

Andy Cameron is one of Scotland's best-loved comedians. He has appeared in countless television, theater, and cabaret shows during his 30 years in showbusiness and he never fails to reduce his audience to tears of laughter. Behind the jokes and smiles, however, is an amazing life story. Andy's mother abandoned him when she ran off with another man while his father was in Egypt during the Second World War. He was looked after by an elderly lady but was later found in a bombed-out building after one of the air raids of the Blitz. He started out on the comedy scene in the early '70s, and then worked his way through the Scottish social-club scene and up the cabaret tree to take his place in theatres and on our television screens in shows such as It's Andy Cameron, Andy Cameron Live and Shammy Dab. Wait 'Til You Hear This . . . is Andy's account of a remarkable life. From Blitz baby to bus driver and then comedy star, it has been a funny old life right from the start.
