Sobre este áudio
A journey into the obsessive world of quizzing.... Includes stories from Shaun's past such as tales from his time playing Barry in Eastenders; the discovery of a long-lost son; hiding from an angry Mike Reid in a broom cupboard; acting with Ricky Gervais and David Bowie, and the loss of his boyhood friend in 9/11.
Actor and celebrity quizzer Shaun Williamson lifts the lid on a National drug that everyone is hooked on: quizzing. A Matter of Facts is a personal journey into the world of quizzes. At the start, Shaun enters the World Quiz Grand Prix, pitching his knowledge against the Nation's finest minds, including Eggheads and Chasers...he fails. Unperturbed, he sets out to improve his skills through memory training, practice and even hypnosis in an attempt to move himself up the rankings of the quizzing elite. Shaun's adventure sees him get his old quizzing 'band' back together to see if he can triumph in the leagues. As he does so, he meets many characters and experiences the wonderful vagaries of the pub quiz - discovering its place, not just in communities, but in people's lives. He also reminisces about his life before acting as an alcoholic postman, a stalled naval career, a Pontins blue coat and his journey to becoming Barry in EastEnders.
Over the course of year Shaun aims to end his journey at a victorious return to the Grand Prix...can his experiences and new-found knowledge end in victory?
A Matter of Facts is a fun, fascinating and heart-warming listen that will be adored by those who enjoy a regular meeting of alcohol and trivia.
