An evening with Ross Kemp

From Albert Square to Afghanistan, comes a collection of heartfelt, hilarious and candid life stories from actor and documentary filmmaker, Ross Kemp.

Famous for his portrayal of the iconic hardman Grant Mitchell and as the maker of 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. In this collection of stories, Ross shares tales from his remarkable life.

From his 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 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. Getting lost at sea to setting a sacred island on fire, auditioning for his part on EastEnders to filming in active war zones across the world, these are the heart-warming, hilarious and hard-hitting stories of some of the unexpected adventures that have happened along the way.
