In this special podcast, TV personality Rob Brydon reads an extract from his autobiography, Small Man in a Book. Before his much-loved performances in shows including The Trip, Gavin and Stacey, Human Remains and Marion and Geoff, Rob Brydon had a difficult ascent to fame. In this extract, he discusses his college years and the trials and tribulations of starting your career.

Growing up in South Wales, Rob had a passion for radio (his hero was DJ Jimmy Savile) and even on-air humiliation aged just thirteen was not to put him off. For years the Welsh airwaves resounded to his hearty burr while he later became the voice of just about every household brand in the country - if appliances could talk they'd speak like Rob. All of them.
