About the Author:
George Layton has combined a successful acting career with a successful writing career. He has played leading parts on stage in New York, Australia and the West End, in productions as well-known and popular as Oliver! and Chicago, opposite other actors and actresses as acclaimed as Maureen Lipman and Lynda Bellingham. On television he has both appeared in and written several very successful comedy series, such as Don't Wait Up, It Ain't Half Hot Mum and Minder, and, perhaps most famously, he was the narrator of Pigeon Street. In July 2000 George received an Honorary Doctorate of Letters from the University of Bradford in recognition of his work as an actor and writer.
