The stories Terry left us with are loved by millions and yet we all grieve for the tales untold, the presence of the best storyteller of a generation and the quirky, grumpy, brilliant man behind it all! Written by Sir Terry’s long time assistant with the consent and support of his family and the great man himself before his untimely demise. The first third of the book you can feel and hear Terry’s own voice, the lively sense of humour, the telling eye for detail. It’s heartbreaking and deeply moving, I burst into tears several times.

It is detailed and chronicles Terry’s whole life, that sounds heavy but this is a delight to read, it reads like a documentary on a remarkable life lived to the fullest. It wasn't to do with the company it was to do with the delivery of my item. I’m guessing it’s in Terry’s own words?

Terry was working on an autobiography which reached until 1979, unfortunately his Alzheimer’s got worse and it stopped. Rob speaks with such love, he is transparent in his discussion on the good and the bad of being alongside Terry and it is obvious that he is deeply traumatised by his loss.
