Her strength, courage and determination to succeed shines through this, under the protection of her signature hysterical, and eye watering humor. However, the hardback printed book shows lots of previously unseen photographs, plus copies of old school text books and random drawings.

I can’t wait to see what Daisy does next, but in the meantime I’ll carry on rewatching This Country and scrolling through her Instagram feed. One of the most hilarious books I’ve read - so many anecdotes I was nearly crying with laughter on the train. Thanks lifting the lid on life as a wannabe actress and sharing your heartbreaking stories of all you had to endure whilst trying to 'make it' in showbiz. As for ‘accidentally’ spending the student grant on a London hotel’s penthouse suite before RADA, Daisy really doesn’t come off as very sharp. Some of the situations she got herself into when she was younger and the way she recounts it are a pick me up tonic full of laughter you never knew you needed!There's the battle Daisy May and brother Charlie had to get back the rights to their own work from a production company who'd promised so much but delivered so little, and Daisy's own battles with low self-esteem and fear of having ideas "above her station". T he funniest memoir of 2021, written by the most relatable woman in the world - Daisy May Cooper, creator and star of BBC's award-winning comedy This Country. All in all a great read, wish there was more about Charlie Daisy's brother - maybe he will come out with a book? I grew up battling rural poverty which was a struggle enough but my family were completely insane to boot. My only criticism is that the book ended a bit abruptly; I was so ready to hear about Daisy finally making it and about how the Coopers lives fiiiinally changed for the better but the book just…ended.

I then went on to follow Daisy May and Charlie Cooper on Instragam, where Daisy kept us all entertained with her what-can-you-fit-under-your-tits challenge, and all the stories of the adventures with the Sea Captain. Even when things really do go their way and This Country finally gets commissioned to be made, it’s almost a cursory mention at the end and that’s it. It made me laugh out loud and at times it was heart breaking to read about the financial situation the family was in and the poverty they endured.

please don't start reading this book expecting it to be a laugh a minute, because you'll be bitterly disappointed.
