In 1964, a single appearance on TV talent show 'Opportunity Knocks' made 'Parrotface' comedian Freddie Davies famous overnight. Spectacular success followed, stars such as Judy Garland, Cliff Richard, even Cary Grant, were fans. But when it all began to slip in the 1980s, Freddie became a producer and then forged yet another career as a series actor. 50 years on from his television debut, Freddie finally tells his own story, revealing for the first time the tragedy behind his early days in Salford and a family secret that rocked his world. He paints a vivid picture of a gruelling apprenticeship in the Northern clubs - revealing how 'Parrotface' spluttered into life.
