Famous for his portrayal of the iconic hardman Grant Mitchell and as the maker of various documentaries exploring the most dangerous people and places on the planet, BAFTA-winning Ross Kemp is one of the UK’s most-loved TV stars. Here Ross shares tales from his remarkable life. From a childhood in Essex, where he used to pretend the woods and irrigation ditches in the fields behind his house were the Amazon rainforest, to finding himself travelling down through the real thing thirty years later, Ross’s life has taken many twists and turns. Through it all there’s been no plan, no roadmap, no strategy. Ross has gone from one wild adventure to the next, and never quite known what’s round the corner. These are the heart-warming, hilarious and hard-hitting stories of the unexpected adventures that have happened to Ross along the way.

‘These are the stories of some of the things that have happened to me: the funny things, the scary things, the exciting things; the things that have made me who I am. I don’t want to start at the beginning and tell them in chronological order because that’s not the way my brain works. And this certainly isn’t going to be one of those books of life lessons . . .

‘I’ve always been passionate about finding and telling stories. And now, for the first time, here are mine.’
