Wicked Humour! July 18, 2008 This book is a great read, it follows Ashley's career from working as the "News Bunny" & the Producer of "Topless Darts" for LIVE TV to touring the world as "Sin Cities" roving sex reporter.
If you've seen "Sin Cities" on Bravo you'll know what to expect, however this book goes further and provides a backdrop to Ashley's experiences and details what happen when the camera stops rolling.
A great insight into one of TV's great characters as you follow him on a humorous journey of debauchery, lost weekends and some painful reminders off how tough it is being a "Sex Reporter".
In summary a top read written by a top bloke!
a masterpiece July 11, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
of filth that transports you right there beside the man himself, knee-deep in drug/hooker heaven. You can almost touch it. Byron, Keats, McNab, Hames. Where to go from here?
Pure genius June 13, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Quite clearly, Ashley's television series is a triumph and makes for entertaining viewing. The book which accompanies the series does the programmes justice. Readers should not be put off by the cover as the book is compulsive and offers a very accessible insight to the key events and personalities which shape the world. The book's style is witty and easy to read yet offers new ideas and opinions which will interest those with a more serious interest in the subject.
Ashley teases out a fine story of our times; adeptly combining the weird with the wonderful....and the downright dirty. Although, a populist, Ashley does offer interesting insights and reassessments of the key personalities in the series. In particular his meeting with Pricasso gives much food for thought.
I would have no hesitation in recommending this book to anyone with an interest in our society as it is extremely accessible and enjoyable. (All except Ashley's mum and members of the WI in Bridgnorth.)
