Who Does She Think She Is?

Who Does She Think She Is? | Martine McCutcheon

so-so

After a tough start, Martine McCutcheon was initially a member of short-lived girl-group 'Milan' in the early 90s, before finally finding fame on 'Eastenders' as Tiffany Raymond (better known as Tiffany Mitchell after marrying Grant Mitchell). At the height of her popularity on the soap, McCutcheon decides to try to resurrect her singing career & stars in the stage adaptation of 'My Fair Lady', but finds herself plagued with ill health.

OutsmartYourShelf This was a charity book sale find for about 50p so I decided to give it a go. Martine comes across very much like her onscreen persona: a bit gossipy, a bit overwhelmed with fame at times, but generally a nice enough person. It's difficult to explain to people not from England, just how popular Eastenders was at that point, & that the actors went very quickly from nobodies to not being able to walk down the street. 2w

OutsmartYourShelf The book ends with McCutcheon getting the Eliza Doolittle role which means there's no bts look at 'Love Actually' or her later life. That's the one thing I have against celebrities releasing autobiographies when they are only in their 20s - anything after that has to be in an updated edition or a second part. 3⭐
