What to expect

'Walters's book . . . has moments of Alan Bennett warmth' SUNDAY TIMES

'Humorous and . . . moving' WOMAN AND HOME

'I was enthralled by her memoirs' A. N. Wilson, READER'S DIGEST

Her mum wanted her to be a nurse so that is what Julie did.

But in her heart she had always wanted to be an actress and soon she was on stage at the local theatre in Liverpool. Her career snowballed with highlights that include Educating Rita, Billy Elliot, Harry Potter, Acorn Antiques, Dinner Ladies and Mamma Mia! She has been nominated for two Oscars, been awarded multiple BAFTAs and a Golden Globe, plus been honoured with a DBE. This is the heart-warming and funny story of that journey.

'Funny, evocative . . . and underpinned throughout by an appealing sense of humanity' SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

  • Funny, evocative... and underpinned throughout by an appealing sense of humanity

    SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

  • Walters's book - also well written - has moments of Alan Bennett warmth

    SUNDAY TIMES

  • This is a humorous and, at times, moving read from this much-loved actress

    WOMAN & HOME

    READER'S DIGEST

See more reviews
  • THAT'S ANOTHER STORY is funny, evocative, reasonably revealing and underpinned throughout by an appealing sense of humanity.

    SUNDAY TELEGRAPH

  • The Walters who emerges from THAT'S ANOTHER STORY is a mischievous Brummie whose childhood seems to belong to an earlier century, with its horse-drawn milkcart.
