Michael Aspel: best books

Michael Aspel has presented British TV shows such as Crackerjack, This Is Your Life, and Antiques Roadshow in a showbiz career that has spanned nearly 50 years.

He named his six best books for the Daily Express. One title on the list:
THE KID STAYS IN THE PICTURE
by Robert Evans

A brilliant Hollywood memoir by the one-time pretty boy turned seven-times married Hollywood producer, which charts his relationship with the actress Ali McGraw and his drug habit among other things in an action-packed life. It was later made into a movie but the book is even better.
Read about the other books on Aspel's list.
