I''ve always been stubborn and always determined''\u003c\/b\u003eOne of our best-loved actresses, Celia Imrie would rather have been a dancer. As a child she planned to join the Royal Ballet and marry Rudolf Nureyev. Now she has become one of our finest and funniest performers, on stage, TV and screen - adored for her roles in \u003ci\u003eAcorn Antiques\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003edinnerladies\u003c\/i\u003e, as well as films including \u003ci\u003eCalendar Girls\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eNanny McPhee\u003c\/i\u003e.\u003cbr\u003eIn her hugely entertaining autobiography Celia Imrie recounts a life hurtling (not always intentionally) into adventures both on stage and off. Whether it''s finding herself on stage with half the scenery stuck to her cardigan, or being kidnapped on her way to location, somehow she emerges from the chaos unscathed.\u003cbr\u003eActing, she admits, is a mad, chaotic profession and it is her refreshing honesty, sense of mischief, fun and almost unruffled determination in the face of it all that makes this autobiography a never-ending delight.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MediaPlace","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57318142017918,"sku":"NW9781444709292","price":11.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1379\/1261\/files\/9781444709292.jpg?v=1778723480","url":"https:\/\/mediaplace.com\/products\/happy-hoofer","provider":"MediaPlace","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
