Bill Waddington is known to millions of "Coronation Street" viewers as the grumpy and principled caretaker, Percy Sugden. He began his show-business career writing and producing variety shows for the troops, which led eventually to radio and the stage. This autobiography reveals his sense of humour and a string of anecdotes from a long and entertaining life. In contrast to his screen role, the veteran actor is a Mercedes-driving owner of racehorses who dreams of breeding a Derby winner.
