This book is a personally written account of Jimmy's '50 Golden Years' in showbusiness, from holiday camp Redcoat to Bluecoat then onto his first big break on television, (after many struggles), going on to headline for four of his own series for Central television in the 1980's with 'Royal Command Performances' and TV Variety shows in between, then his BBC Radio 2 series written by the great scriptwriter Eddie Braben in the 1990's which run for five years called, 'Jimmy's Cricket Team'.
As Jimmy says himself in the book,
'I hope it brings back warm memories for older readers', and gives a taste to younger readers of a form of entertainment that seemed to vanish before our very eyes'.
