Publisher Description
'Mischievous and measured' The Times
'Immensely fun' Evening Standard
'Captures perfectly the mixture of poshness and larkiness' Daily Mail
Joanna Lumley is one of Britain's undisputed national treasures, who has lived many lives: a single mum; a voiceover artist; a TV presenter; an author; a former model and Bond girl; a human rights activist for Survival International and the Gurkha Justice Campaign; and as an iconic, award-winning actor, best known for her roles in timeless shows like Absolutely Fabulous and The New Avengers.
In Absolutely, Joanna tells her story, from the very beginning up until the present day, in her own glamorous, wickedly funny style.
'Joanna Lumley's Absolutely is what Alan Sugar would probably call "a breath of fresh air in a world full of c****"' Tanya Gold, Daily Telegraph
'Her beauty does not fade and her unquenchable spirit for adventure seems more apparent than ever'

Customer Reviews
Great book
Enjoyed this book. Love everything that Joanna Lumley was in except Absolutely Fabulous Favourite her Sensitive Skin.
Ansolutely
Not only a brilliant actress but a top class writer. I bought the physical book because of the photographs, Joanna Lumley is stunningly gorgeous, always has been and always will be. Her life reads so interesting, if not a little self-depreciating which I guess is part of her charm. I love the photo of Joanna on the red Triumph Daytona at start. OK, so I'm a bloke but I can read.
I thought there would be more!
Joanna Lumley's writing style is easy to read and quite funny in parts. I can't help but feel that there should be more to this story.
Thoroughly enjoyed what was there.
