Richard and Judy

Judy Finnigan

Richard Madeley

Richard and Judy are the nation's best-loved couple. On television together for 18 years they fronted the most popular daytime programme ever - This Morning - for 13 of those years and their departure from it gave rise to huge newspaper coverage when they left it in 2001.

Now back with their top-rated Channel 4 show they write the full story of their lives - their chilhoods unsuccessful first marriages and of course their own professional and personal lives together.

In these brilliantly juxtaposed accounts we hear about Judy's many health problems and how Richard coped with the lowest points. We hear how both of them survived his court ordeal on a shoplifting charge how Judy felt on baring more than her soul at a TV awards ceremony why they left This Morning and how they handle home and work and parenthood - as well as the ever-curious press.

Opening up their hearts minds and daily lives as never before this book is set to be the top-selling title of 2003.>
