Seems Like A Nice Boy

Nuneaton is not necessarily one of Britain’s loveliest towns, but it was Larry Grayson’s adopted home. Its streets and shopping centre were much enhanced by the sight of Larry, in a sharp sports jacket, nipping out to do a bit of shopping or gracing the Oddfellows Arms. Larry was devoted to the town, and that helped him to keep his feet firmly on the ground when fame eventually came his way. Jim Lee, a fellow Nuneaton citizen, shares memories of the kind and quietly camp performer, who died in 1995.
