King of the castle

'It's sweet-sad and hilarious, it will be loved. Plimmer should be applauded.' - "Daily Express". 'a touching and witty snapshot of family life seen through the eyes of an average man.

Plimmer's a major new talent in dad lit.' - "Woman magazine".

You would think that as an acclaimed writer and comedian, Martin Plimmer would be well able to run a happy household.

But with his French au pair cosily tucked away in his son's bedroom and his 12 year-old daughter believing that 'life's a bitch' this is far from the truth. "King of the Castle" is an honest tale of the domestic chaos that filled a year of Martin's life.

With his marriage, hair and career slowly disintegrating, you can't help but feel his pain.

The art of juggling a house full of cats, nannies, stray children along with a collapsing freelance career is hilariously brought to life.

This is one domestic disaster you are guaranteed to enjoy.
