Once Upon A Tyne: The hilarious and heart-warming Sunday Times bestseller

Description

THE HILARIOUS SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER Complete with Christmassy gold cover, this is the perfect uplifting gift for Ant and Dec fans. (P.S. it's a little known fact that you can give gifts to yourself, too. Go on, treat yourself!) Told through the lens of every TV show Ant and Dec have made, this is the riotously funny journey of two ordinary lads from Newcastle who have gone on to achieve extraordinary things. From their modest beginnings in Byker Grove through to their "unique" time as pop stars and an award-laden TV career, Ant and Dec are surely the most loveable double act on our small screens. With more laugh out loud moments than you can count, ONCE UPON A TYNE includes behind-the-scenes stories about their first scriptwriter (an unknown comedian called David Walliams), Saturday night fun and games with countless Hollywood A-listers, and celebrities they torture - sorry, work with - every year in the jungle.

After first appearing on Byker Grove together in 1990, Ant and Dec's career has since spanned 30 years across TV, film and music. They have a combined social media following of over 13 million people, they've won over 100 awards - including 19 Best Presenter Awards at the NTAs, 13 BAFTAs and 1 Guinness World Record - and even bagged a chart Number 1 in 2013 for 'Let's Get Ready to Rhumble' (almost 20 years after the song's original release). Their debut book, first published in 2009, sold over 360,000 copies. They are active supporters of several charities, including being ambassadors for the Prince's Trust and NSPCC . They were both born and raised in Newcastle.
