Pat worked for years in a sugar factory while her husband Charlie took on two jobs so their growing family could survive. One day Charlie suggested they should take over The Rising Sun pub in Bromley-by-Bow. In this charming memoir Pat describes her years as the pub landlady with the famous red beehive. Vividly evoking the colourful East End community in the 1960s, Pat captures the changes that swept through society at that time. She also reveals why she and Charlie moved to Essex, and what it felt like to become one of the stars of The Only Way is Essex.
