Book SynopsisSay ‘Eh-oh!’ to Nikky Smedley and Laa-Laa
Over the Hills and Far Away follows Nikky through the Teletubbies years, from her role as a bistro table during her audition to the show’s international success and the accompanying hounding by the press.
In this warm, funny, affectionate look back at life on the Teletubbies set, Nikky reveals all, including tales about dogs and asthma, raging arguments about fruit, and the games the cast and crew played to amuse themselves during long shoots in their massive costumes.
Join Nikky and Laa-Laa on their extraordinary journey from the very beginning to handing the torch to another performer for the next generation.
Trade Review‘Puts us right inside those hellishly uncomfortable costumes, without trashing the magic or betraying the children who gave Laa-Laa their love.’
‘Charming, funny, insightful, beautifully written.’
My showbiz memoir of the year. A hit!
Top notch insight into the woman within the puppet.
Funny, poignant and heart-warming.
This book is the reminder I didn’t know I needed.
What a wonderful book! Beautifully written and Nikki’s sense of humour shines through the pages.
