Gregor Fisher & Melanie Reid (2016 Event)
Gregor Fisher may be best known as Rab C Nesbitt, the funniest string-vested street philosopher in all of Govan, but his own life story is far from amusing. His upbringing was a tale of secrets, deception, tragedy, rejection and death, and only now has he felt able to share it, in The Boy from Nowhere. In this event, recorded live at the 2016 Edinburgh International Book Festival, Fisher is joined on stage by Melanie Reid, the writer he enlisted to help him tell his story.
