From a bolshy child with a Welsh-speaking budgie to National Treasure, Janet Street-Porter's life (and language) has always been colourful. 

As a broadcaster, television executive and newspaper editor she was at the forefront of some of Britain's most enduring cultural moments. Now she finds herself with a senior railcard and 4 ex-husbands. The nation's favourite pissed-off pensioner brings comedy, tragedy and gossip in equal measure, a tour de force rant against growing old gracefully. 

Often imitated but rarely equalled, in the words of her good friend Elton, "the bitch is back"!
