TV and radio presenter Chris Tarrant is writing a book about his life and career.

It’s Not a Proper Job will see Tarrant reflect on his 50-year career on both TV and radio.

According to the book’s publishers, it will look back at Tarrant’s career, including as the presenter of programmes such as Tiswas and Who Wants to be a Millionaire?. 

The publisher said: “Spanning five decades, Chris’ television credits are the envy of aspirational TV stars, but reading his laugh-out-loud anecdotes – akin to having a chat with the man himself over a pint, or listening to one of his entertaining, after-dinner speeches – reveals a man still amused by life, by the people he meets, and by his own humble assertion that none of his glittering career can, in any way, be called ‘a proper job’.”

It’s Not a Proper Job will be published in April.
