Perfect Meringues by Laurie Graham

It shouldn't have been like this. Being on television was meant to lead to fame and a glamorous social life.

'Comic social comment mixed with romantic comedy ... a gift for timing, an impeccable ear for dialogue and an eye for detail ... skilled and highly engaging' The Times. * The Times *
