A nostalgic, warm-hearted memoir from one of the producers of the cult-hit TV show Father Ted.

Lissa Evans, as producer of the second and third series, spent three years hovering anxiously over every moment, from the first glimpse of script to the last revolution of a runaway milk-float round a specially-built plywood roundabout.
