I enjoyed this book, but finished feeling I still knew little about Alastair Sim as a person. This is certainly not the author's fault, as he has done admirably in painting a portrait in words of the actor and his times. Nevertheless his subject was adept at covering up his traces, ensuring that any biographer would not find him an easy task. Recollections from Ian Carmichael and George Cole, among others, have helped to put some flesh on the bones, but he remains something of an enigma.
If you enjoyed this, you will probably also like a biography of one of his contemporaries and colleagues, [[Bounder! : The Life Biography of Terry-Thomas by Graham McCann]].
