A fast-paced, fly-on-the-wall story of courage, endurance, bungling, rows and cheating in sport's greatest marathon In 1987, the Tour de France was won by Irishman Stephen Roche. It was the first time the champion had hailed from outside the Continent or the States and the first time in 20 years a British team - ANC Halfords - had competed in the world's toughest and craziest race. Jeff Connor not only stayed with the British team but also found himself an unofficial team member. In this long-awaited new edition of Wide-Eyed and Legless, now widely regarded as a classic, Connor describes what it takes to compete, survive and win during those 26 days of gruelling effort. Alongside the heroism and athleticism, he reveals the extraordinary amounts of chicanery, from pulling riders along to illicit drug use. Time has not dimmed the impact of this eye-opening and entertaining close-up look at the supreme endurance event, and Wide-Eyed and Legless is destined to be acclaimed by a new generation of cycling enthusiasts. Jeff Connor's other books include the definitive story of the Busby Babes, The Lost Babes, and Up and Down Under, an account of the 2001 British Lions tour.

From her BAFTA-winning television work, such as My Beautiful Son, to her big screen debut alongside Michael Caine in Educating Rita, her starring in Billy Elliot (both of which earned her Oscar nominations) and her portrayal of Mrs Weasley in the Harry Potter films, Julie Walters has worked with some of the greatest and most diverse actors and directors in the world today. In December 2005, at the British Comedy Awards, Walters - alongside longtime friend and television comedy partner Victoria Wood - picked up the Outstanding Contribution to Comedy Award. Raised in a strict Catholic family in working class Birmingham, Julie Walters abandoned a nursing course to study drama at Manchester Polytechnic and went on to join the Liverpool Everyman Theatre where she cut her teeth as an actress. Over the next decade, she experienced three marriage proposals, two long-term romances and a period of heavy drinking. At the end of 1984 she met sociology student Grant Roffey and had a daughter Maisie, who was traically diagnosed with luekaemia and had to undergo years of painful chemotherapy. the authors have interviewed friends, teachers and colleagues to skilfully compile the first-ever biography of one of Britain's finest and best-loved actresses.

"In 1971 Deric Longden's wife Diana fell ill with the mysterious disorder known as ME (myalgic encephalomyelitis). She was unable to move without a wheelchair, and was in almost constant pain. Equally distressing, perhaps, was the fact that every doctor she saw was unable to diagnose what was wrong with her. Deric, devoting more and more time to looking after Diana, watched his business gradually fail, and had to neglect his developing career as a broadcaster. He became house husband, nurse and caretaker of the women he loved. Diana's Story is told by a writer who can transform the bleakest moment with his warmth and wit. It is an extraordinary funny account of a marriage based on love and on an exceptional sense of humour."

When an Earth-shattering secret has two legs, a big mouth, and a blinkered determination to get home by any means necessary, it’s up to Daisy and Aidan to stop it happening… by any means necessary! “One of the best cozy mystery series I’ve ever read!” Come and meet our feisty R.E.D. heroine, and find out why she’s such a hit with readers! From feeling like they were back in the eighteenth century, Daisy and Aidan are thrust very much into the twenty-first century. Answering a desperate call for help, they find themselves embroiled in a crazy chase across the county to stop a secret going public that must never hit the front pages. This time the puzzle is the whereabouts of a missing scarecrow, and the question of just how he intends getting ‘home’. Our story is different in another, but just as scary a way too. Our intrepid heroes are separated, and neither knows where the other is. For Aidan, an encounter with an old friend proves frighteningly enlightening, while Daisy discovers evidence he could well be in mortal danger, and there isn’t a lot of time to save his life… or the situation. Neither of them realise the secret they’re chasing is hardly the secret they thought it was. As an ever-increasing number of friends and enemies join the battle for the same pot of gold, the yellow brick road starts to look more like a four-lane highway, and the end of the rainbow seems to be ever further away. Who will be the first to make Emerald City in one piece? With the spoils just out of sight over the horizon, that’s anyone’s guess! ‘The Terrifying Tale of the Homesick Scarecrow’ is the fifth book in the hilarious Daisy series, and like the others, is not exactly what you might expect! Check out the whole series, and everything else we create, on the r t green website. And enjoy!
