Over 25 years of stand-up have elevated Roy Chubby Brown from povery to being one of the most successful comedians to perform in Britain. But unusually for someone who is both famous and infamous, very little is known about Brown, even by his most ardent fans. His stage act may be synonymous with casual obscenity, but there is much more to his story - not least the fact that initially he found it very difficult to swear onstage. His is a story that take in poverty, broken homes, divorce, violence, crime, borstal and prison, through to clubland, sell-out tours and a battle against throat cancer. From the toxic fumes of the coke-ovens in Grangetown to the smog of LA, "My Autobiography" is a candid and entertaining account of Chubby's life.
