The 4th outing for Henry Pratt is a hilarious satire on celebrity culture, as our hero finds himself, through a TV quiz show, in the unlikely guise of 'The People's Chef.' But soon the knives are sharpening behind his back... 'No writer combines humanity and humour as effectively as David Nobbs' "Daily Express". The first 3 volumes are also published in an omnibus edition this month.
Synopsis
When pretty young TV researcher Nicky Proctor visits Cafe Henry in London's Soho, Henry Pratt's life changes forever. He becomes an instant star of the TV food quiz, "A Question of Salt". But, he incurs the hatred of rival celebrity chef Bradley Tompkins. On the domestic front, too, there are storms ahead. Can Henry become a real man at last?
