The son of a dustman, Shane Richie has come a long way from the rough streets of London's Harlesden. As EASTENDERS' loveable rogue Alfie Moon, he is now the 'darling' of every soap fan in Britain. But it has been an incredible roller-coaster ride to the top. Shane grabbed the trappings of fame with both hands, sleeping with a string of women and indulging in the champagne lifestyle to excess. The hugely popular television entertainer started life as a Pontins Bluecoat before making his name as the star of the musical GREASE. A successful TV career saw him quickly become the face of Saturday night entertainment with shows such as LUCKY NUMBERS, WIN, LOSE OR DRAW!, LOVE ME DO and the SHANE RICHIE EXPERIENCE. In RAGS TO RICHIE, Shane writes candidly about his years of womanising, the agonising break-up of his marriage to singer Colleen Nolan and the days of heavy drinking. He also reveals how he coped through his career nose-dive, his money troubles and the loss of almost everything important to him. In this fascinating read, Shane lifts the lid on his 25 amazing years in showbusiness, emerging as a gifted actor, generously spirited man and a unique star.
