Born in suburban London, Robert Robinson progressed via grammar school and Oxford to become one of the most successful broadcasters of his generation in a career spanning programmes such as "Today", "Stop the Week", "Brain of Britain" and "Call my Bluff". In this autobiography he tells stories of his Pooterish childhood, japes with university contemporaries such as Robin Day and Shirley Williams, and behind-the-scenes anecdotes at the BBC involving celebrities such as Frank Muir, Patrick Campbell, Anthony Clare, Laurie Taylor, Joanna Lumley - and bruising encounters with Lord Longford and Enoch Powell.
