| book description |

'There was none like her before and there's been none like her since - she was unique.' Dawn French Victoria Wood was one of the true comedy greats of her generation, celebrated for her acute skewering of the absurdities of everyday life, from corner shops to candlewick bedspreads, supermarket checkouts to suburban lust. This revised edition of Chunky collects the very best of Victoria Wood's sketches, shows and more, and is newly introduced by Celia Imrie, star of so many of Victoria Wood's shows, with additions and annotations from Wood's much-feted official biographer, Jasper Rees. Chunky is an unmissable celebration of an inimitable and greatly missed comedic genius. 'I was very proud to be part of her gang.' Celia Imrie 'She is on a par with Alan Bennett.' Clive James 'Absolutely perfect.' Sarra Manning
