Television Doesn't Like Rebels: The Life of Brian Cleeve (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781326937096)

Brian Cleeve was a star of Irish television during the 1960s. In that first heady decade of RTÉ's existence Gay Byrne might have been top of the tree, but Brian was not far below him. By the early-1970s, however, Brian Cleeve was gone from our TV screens. Brian Cleeve's many facets emerge vividly in this biography: the ex-public schoolboy with a thirst for adventure who found it in the greatest conflict the world has seen, the businessman expelled from South Africa because he opposed apartheid, the broadcaster who won awards for his moving and thought-provoking television programmes, the writer who produced novels of wit and compassion, the seeker of truth who finally found what he had been searching for.
