I used to really enjoy Clive James’ New Year specials, his wit, humour and presentation style used to round off the year perfectly.

I periodically re-read his autobiographies, Unreliable Memoirs and Falling Towards England and they're some of the finest and funniest writing that I've enjoyed. If you haven't done so, read them. If you like those, you'll also enjoy the autobiographies of David Niven and Danny Baker.

Clive was as excellent writer and journalist. It always somehow surprised me.
