Publisher's Synopsis

Ronald Balford Corbett, the son of an Edinburgh baker, became convinced he must become an actor, a goal he pursued with success. Ronnie talks of his school days and the technique he developed for estimating the height of a girl before asking her to dance. He re-lives his years of performing in nightclubs, pantos and summer shows, supporting himself as a barman, a tennis court supervisor and an estate agent's runner. He reveals the new approaches taken by him and "the other Ronnie", how they tried not to become a double act and why it had to be goodnight from me and goodnight from him, but never goodnight from us.
