3. Love Letter to My Knockers/Wearing Glasses/Married a Second Time
Sarah Millican reads from her memoir. She delivers a love letter to her boobs and describes the impact of wearing glasses. From 2017.
Part-autobiography, part-self-help book, Sarah Millican's memoir is a funny, honest and sometimes outrageous account of how she went from being a quiet, bookish child to becoming one of Britain's most successful and best-loved comedians.
This episode opens with a light-hearted love letter to her knockers, before moving on to describe what it was like to wear glasses from a young age (including becoming a target for school bullies) and how, despite the failure of her first marriage, she learned to believe in the word 'forever' again and marry for a second time.
Written and read by Sarah Millican.
Abridged by Kirsteen Cameron.
Producer: Kirsteen Cameron
