With a career spanning seven decades, Sir Patrick Stewart is still probably best known to many as Captain Jean-Luc Picard or Professor X - but what of the journey towards these career highs? With his memoir, ⁠Making it So⁠, now on shelves, we sat down to speak with him about his childhood in Yorkshire, the influence of a troubled father, and the inspiring teachers who set him on the path to stardom.

Just finished the book, it's a very easy read. ...now it needs to be serialized...hour episodes...Sir Patrick as narrator...BBC? I also think he'd write a good children's book. How is a child to deal with a violent parent? Could his Father's anger have come from having survived the war? Perhaps he felt he should have ended with his comrades? very sad
