Description
A darkly comic novel about life on the sofa and in front of the cameras, "Coming Up Next" is a page-turning account of TV presenter Katie Fisher's struggles. After being sacked from her job as anchor of Hello Britain!, Katie returns home to face the world, photographers, and backstage intrigue of morning television. As she navigates this cut-throat industry, Katie must confront lecherous producers, ambitious but vacant colleagues, and a co-host who may be friend or foe. With humour as her only weapon, Katie faces rock-bottom and must decide if it can provide a solution to life after the sofa. Written by an insider, Penny Smith's novel offers a knowing, insightful look at TV's darker side.
