Description

Along with a reminder that the VERY best grown ups are those who hold on tight to the chiddler inside.

Main character Gary, a man with a job that Mortimer used to have, in the same location where Mortimer used to work.

Plot The Thursday Murder Club – four pensioners who live in a fictional Kent retirement village, and keep their minds active by solving old crimes together – are back for their third trip around the block, written by Osman, the TV producer turned host of Pointless turned novelist. Over on the island, they make a thrilling discovery, which leads them deep into the dungeons of Kirrin Castle on a dangerous adventure. The risk here would be to boil down at least one of the generations to stereotype, but Jones fiercely resists this. No soggy bottoms here' CLARE MACKINTOSH__________Sally Parker is struggling to find the hero inside herself.

One day, George takes them to explore nearby Kirrin Island, with its rocky little coast and old ruined castle on the top. Luckily it is the Big Friendly Giant (the BFG), who is no ordinary bone-crunching giant, but instead prefers snozzcumbers and frobscottle to children. As well as taking part in Channel 4's The Games during 2005, she currently co-presents ITV's 5 O'Clock Show with Richard Hammond.

This debut novel comes from the comedian and former Bake Off co-host Mel Giedroyc, one half of Mel and Sue.

It’s the story of a family who lose everything, only to find themselves, and each other, along the way. Now Sally has been thrown into the deep-end having to take control of her family and try and make some money to put food on the table as her husband falls apart. Come down the travelators, exit Sainsbury's, turn right and follow the pedestrianised walkway to Crown Walk and turn right - and Coles will be right in front of you.

The neighbor, Alan, is a self-styled Evil Lunatic, with a grumpy robot sidekick and a dog named Kevin Phillips to prove it. And that isn’t exactly a niche group: the man is so beloved that, for a while, The Satsuma Complex managed to out-sell the unsinkable Osman.Main character The story is told from the perspective of all four characters, although the main one is Grace, a woman approaching her 90th birthday with the same energy that most approach their 30th.

We talked to her about her ferocious devotion to Jean Valjean, the funny book she always gives as a gift and the book so scary she'd only read it when other people were in the room. However, she increasingly feels as if she is simply holding it all together to present herself the way society wants. But when her husband suddenly goes bankrupt, all this is whipped away from her and she can start to find herself again.Both Gary’s elderly neighbour and the mystery woman are more than happy to veer off on long, absurd tangents about oddly worded minutiae. Funny, warm, life-affirming and true, The Best Things is a big-hearted tale of failing, falling and finding a way back up.
