Frank Skinner - Frank Skinner Reviews

This is Frank Skinner's autobiography. Now, I've read a few celebrity autobiographies, most of them not written by the person in question and most not really saying much at all. This is the opposite. It's clearly been written by the man himself and it is so honest and revealing, that you wonder how he still goes out in public. Some of the things ...  Read the complete review

This autobiography is a great read. Its very frank, funny and compelling in parts. When i first began reading i was a little confused as he jumps from childhood/adulthood each paragraph. After a while this is something you get used to and it really keeps your interest. His life is extremely interesting which was a little surprising to me. (I ...  Read the complete review

i have been a fan of Frank since his fantasy football days so was looking forward to reading more about him and I was not disappointed. This book is full of funny gags and annecdotes but Frank also addresses some of the more serious aspects of his life such as his religion and his battle with alcohol in a refreshingly honest manner. he makes no ...  Read the complete review

IN A SENTENCE WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT? Frank Skinner's first autobiography - an entertaining, deeply candid laddish trawl through the ups and downs of his life and career from his working class background in the West Midlands to his notoriety as a popular entertainer. WHAT MADE ME BUY IT? It was through ...  Read the complete review

I have always found Frank Skinner a very funny man. But you dont realise how funny until you read this book. It is hilarious!!! But its not all funny, there are some really touching moments as he talks about his parents, his relationships and his love of the game he couldnt play himself, football. The way he has structured the book is pure ...  Read the complete review

Friday morning, I sat down by the beach in the blazing sunshine and opened Frank Skinner's daringly titled autobiography "Frank Skinner" - amazing how creative these comedy geniuses can get. Anyway, I very quickly found myself attracting strange looks as I cackled away. Its now Sunday morning and I've finished it already (it took ...  Read the complete review

I’ve never really watched ‘The Frank Skinner Show’ or even ‘Baddiel and Skinner unplanned’. In fact I would have had no intention of purchasing Frank Skinner’s autobiography. I received it as a gift and had to persuade myself to read it, and I’m glad I did. Frank is a very funny man and this is ...  Read the complete review

I guarantee that this book will make you laugh your socks off. I am not particularly ‘into’ Frank Skinner, although I do try to catch his show on TV when I can, and I must admit that the only reason I bought this book is because it was included in one of those ‘three for two’ price offers in Waterstones, and I ...  Read the complete review

Now i'm not a great reader of biographies or in this case autobiograhies, but this has to be one of the funniest ever written.I only bought the book because i'm a fan of Frank Skinner and because i very much like his humour on television.He tells his life up to date in his own humourous way just how he performs on the television and this ...  Read the complete review

Okay so I'm not a big autobiography fan and you're probably wondering why did I read this then. Well I first started liking Frank Skinner only recently, watching his chat show. I then saw the book over christmas and had some book tokens and though well I might aswell buy it and see what he's got to say for himself, maybe pick up a few ...  Read the complete review

I am a big fan of Frank Skinner. I watch all his shows and laugh at bits that nobody else finds vaguely amusing. When Skinner’s autobiography was published it went straight to the top of my Christmas list – unfortunately nobody took any damn notice! The first thing I did after Christmas was dash out and buy a copy of ‘Frank ...  Read the complete review

I bought this book for my girlfriend to read on a recent holiday in Tenerife - and found myself laughing out loud.... I quite like autobiographies. I don't like football. I have no particular feelings about Christians. (I probably am one myself, simply by the default of not being anything else - but that's another ...  Read the complete review

If you are easily offended then do not read this book. From the first page to the last it is full of sex. It was my birthday recently and knowing that I love this bloke to bits,it was given to me as a present. I am a bit of a ladette, I love football,which is Franks greatest passion, next to sex that is! I read a lot of ...  Read the complete review
