Plus showbiz etceteras of a unique early career. Frank and fascinating, I'M JUST THE GUY WHO SAYS ACTION is a unique insight into the golden era of television production, and the people who helped shaped it. A must-read for anyone interested in the history of young and untried talent struggling to find their way to the top. "Alvin Rakoff is exactly who you want to find sitting next to you on a long train journey. The stories that pour from him are so gaspingly glorious that the journey will flash by - Rakoff has known and worked with all the legends, liars and loons in showbiz history and his recall is perfect. I never wanted the ride to end." - Stephen Fry "It races off the page like a thriller: a vastly entertaining masterclass. Should be required reading for anyone who even thinks of joining the profession." - Joanna Lumley
