Join actor, writer and comedy legend Nigel Planer as he discusses Young Once , his funny, moving and gloriously unconventional memoir. Best known to many as Neil from The Young Ones , Nigel reflects on an extraordinary life: from bell-ringer and gravedigger to accidental icon of the 1980s comedy revolution. Reminiscing about encounters with Alexei Sayle, Rik Mayall, Adrian Edmondson and a cast of unforgettable characters, this will be a candid and nostalgic conversation about creativity, fame, friendship and finding happiness in the most unlikely places. There will be a book signing after this event . Get ahead of your Festival reading and visit the Waterstones Cheltenham Literature Festival bookshop and support Cheltenham Festivals with every purchase.
