Paul O'Grady first came to fame in the guise of Lily Savage, and was nominated for a Perrier Award at the Edinburgh Festival in 1991. Lily later became a regular on This Morning, took over the bed on The Big Breakfast and presented Blankety Blank. Paul, of course, went on to further success presenting his chat shows on Channel 4 and ITV, For the Love of Dogs and Animal Orphans on ITV, and his weekly show on BBC Radio 2, inter alia. His four volumes of autobiography - At My Mother's Knee, The Devil Rides Out, Still Standing and Open the Cage, Murphy - are all Sunday Times bestsellers.

"Paul speaks with warmth and hilarity about a childhood filled with poverty. Hugely interesting and entertaining" Heat Magazine "Among the three-for-two slew of sleb lit heaped on the tables of the nation's major bookshops... At My Mother's Knee distinguishes itself on every level" -- Carol Ann Duffy Observer "While most celeb memoirs are as memorable as an air kiss, O'Grady's is a proper snog" The Scotsman "Warmly funny, dry and mischievous... Genuine - and brilliant" Daily Mail "One of the most brilliantly observed testimonies to working-class life I've ever read" -- Sue Carroll Daily Mirror
