Father Ted co-creator Graham Linehan is writing a book about his TV career and recent notoriety as critic of the trans rights movement. Tough Crowd will chart his life since his sitcom success and will “explain my situation and why I do the things I do”.
Linehan, 55, broke the news during his stand-up set last night. He has recently been performing live and this was his first gig since the Edinburgh Fringe in August where he was due to appear at a Comedy Unleashed night until two successive venues dropped the booking. Linehan eventually performed outside the Scottish Parliament.
