About this deal

As for Hugh as a person I find him quite arrogant and aggressive please note there is quite a lot of swearing in this book including the C word which I do not appreciate. Paddington is in charge of the 'eyetinnery', and, as Mrs Bird mutters darkly, 'There's no knowing where we might end up. He’s self deprecating, doesn’t take himself too seriously, and manages to find love and light and humour in everything he does. He had lucky breaks, not least in finding minor roles in Regent’s Park theatre and later the RSC, but equally there were times when he was not kept on.

This is an immensely readable book which gives genuine insights into a British actor’s life since the mid-1980s. Whether telling stories of working with divas, Dames, or a bear with a penchant for marmalade, this account of his life as an actor is richly entertaining. These are the rather interesting memoirs of the English actor now best known for his role as Robert Crawley, Earl of Grantham, in the 'Downton Abbey' series.

The 30-year-old actor is also not a believable 23-year-old, so the scenes of him sulking and railing against an ever-reliable Kelly Macdonald as his beleaguered mother (just 16 years his senior in real life), play a bit like sketch show exaggeration.

This question and its answer lie at the heart of Absolute Proof, an international thriller from best-selling author Peter James. There’s a believably devious turn from Hugh Bonneville at the centre of new hit-and-miss Netflix thriller I Came By, a film that sadly has very little else believable in it. Whether telling stories of working with divas, Dames or a bear with a penchant for marmalade, this is a richly entertaining account of his life as an actor.

It flits and floats from childhood to adolescence to adulthood, from theatre to TV and to film, in and out, back and forth, and whereas this might have been confusing, it wasn’t even thought about. Diddy transforms into Batman as he arrives at Halloween party in a Batmobile whileChloe Bailey channels Mrs. Whether telling stories of working with divas, Dames, or a bear with a penchant for marmalade, thisaccount of his life as an actor is richly entertaining.Britain hunkers down for Storm Ciaran: Schools shut and trains cancelled tomorrow as sandbags and flood. Against her better judgment she has allowed her late husband’s ward, handsome tennis ace Neville Strange, and his wife Kay to come at the same time as Neville’s ex-wife Audrey. Once someone starts working on the screen, we often forget about their work in the theater and I'm glad he spent so much time talking about it. Playing Under the Piano, published by Little, Brown in October 2022, is Hugh’s first book, reflecting on three decades of trying not to bump into the furniture.

Cantankerous bachelor Robin Lightfoot is happily single - until one morning he awakes to discover he’s married with two children. Hugh’s writing style and self-deprecating sense of humour shine through in this book, with lots of amazing name dropping and behind-the-scenes looks at productions he has worked on. This entertaining book has everything you’d want from an actor’s autobiography: early struggles, plenty of chuckles, interesting anecdotes about the workings of theatre and film, choice tidbits of celebrity name-dropping, and enough personal stuff to feel privileged to be confided in without feeling like an embarrassed interloper.He's experienced significant loss in his life and those reminiscences shimmer with love, emotion, and sometimes regret. A moving, laugh-out-loud memoir from one of today’s best-loved British actors, whose credits include Downton Abbey , Notting Hill , and Paddington . But Jimmy was as lucky in love as he was at betting on dodgy derivatives, so instead of burning out, his star just burned brighter than ever.
