註釋
'I always knew he was quite creative, but I had no idea he was so reckless' Lord Sugar
'The thinking woman's Bakewell tart ... Witty, interesting and underpinned by a sharp intellect' Jo Brand
'This book is a total delight - as wise and witty and surprising as the man himself' Gyles Brandreth
When
Nick Hewer
first appeared on our TV screens in
The Apprentice
in 2005, he had thought he was heading towards a quiet retirement after a long and successful career in PR and marketing. Little did he realise that appearing on the show with
Lord Sugar
and Margaret Mountford would mean that his life was about to be transformed. Quickly, he became a regular presence in our homes, renowned for his
wry sense of humour and his astute insights
.
But the story of how the current host of
Countdown
came to this point has remained largely unknown – until now. In
My Alphabet
, Nick Hewer takes us through an A to Z of some of
the most remarkable and entertaining events his life
, covering everything from his Boyhood in Swindon, when he took his Dinky toys on a most unexpected journey, to Regrets, and an episode that ended in
a kidnapping
. With chapters on subjects from
Tottenham Hotspur
to one on Underwear, there is sure to be something for all tastes within these pages.
My Alphabet
builds up into
a brilliant and fascinating self-portrait
, taking the reader on a remarkable journey that will inform, entertain and move you. We get to see behind the scenes on
The Apprentice
and
Countdown
, and much else besides. Self-deprecating and witty, Nick Hewer has written
a brilliant book
his many fans are sure to treasure.
