AN EVENING WITH DAVID NOBBS
The author of “The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin” will read from and talk about his work.
David Nobbs was born in Orpington Kent in 1935 and was educated at Marlborough and Cambridge. He also did National Service in the Royal Corps of Signals. His first job was as a reporter on the “Sheffield Star”. Moving to London in January 1960 —to write— he earned £5.00 in 18 months, but luckily sold material to “That Was The Week, That Was” in 1963 and has been a full time writer ever since. David now lives at Pembridge, is a member of the Hereford United Vice Presidents’ Club and plays darts for The Cross at Eardisland (B Team). He is well known as the script writer of the TV Comedy series “The Fall and Rise of Reginald Perrin”, “Fairly Secret Army”, “The Glamour Girls”, “The Hallo Goodbye Man” and “The Sun Trap”. David has also written TV plays and material for The Two Ronnies, Les Dawson, Frankie Howard and others. His novel “Second From last in the Sack Race”, published in 1983, was extremely funny and his 8th novel “A Bit of a Do” will be published on July 3rd [1986].
