Further details
Mike Reid
The parallels between Mike's life and that of his alter ego Frank are uncanny - from disastrous business ventures to personal tragedy. Mike's story is far more traumatic than any soap opera and it is told with great honesty and affection by the people who knew him best - his family and friends.
