At some point in our lives one in four of us will be affected by mental illness ... Bring three friends! Ruby Wax had it all - career, dream house, husband, kids, so when was the moment she realised she was the one in four ... Somewhere between painting her kitchen beige (again), realising she didn't own a life manual or comprehend the contents of a children's party bag? Ruby's acerbic, honest humour and Judith Owen's touching songs are both poignant and laugh-out-loud funny. 'Ruby Wax is on razor sharp form.' (Sunday Express).
