Catch the old twinkly eyed dance master in a special Len Goodman book signing taking place at the brand new WH Smith Westfield this December. Renowned for being the head judge on the smash hit BBC1 show Strictly Come Dancing, Len has won over the hearts of many a middle aged lady around the country and now he will be signing copies of his autobiography just in time for Christmas.

Masterclass with Len Goodman
The Len Goodman book signing will see the dance master signing his autograph on his extraordinary life story. Better Late Than Never is the story behind the man who hands scores for the celebrity dancers and their partners on the Saturday night show. Taking you from the days of his upbringing in poverty stricken East London, right up to his celebrity status as Strictly Come Dancing judge, the story is a fascinating look at the man behind the sevens.

Strictly Come Dancing with Len
Renowned for his catchphrases and cheeky sense of humour on the show, Len doesn't just spill the beans on the Strictly series, but on the American equivalent Dancing with the Stars show. Len is also head judge over the water too and in this unusual biography, he tells of his experiences with the British and American celebrities as they struggle to learn to dance.

East Enders
With echoes of Billy Elliot and other East End favourites such as Tommy Steele or Roberta Taylor, Better Late Than Never is a heart warming biography of Britain's favourite dapper chap on the dance floor. You can get hold of a copy of his book and get it signed by the man himself at the Len Goodman book signing at WH Smith this December.

Ballroom maestro
Before he became famous for flirting with the ladies and giving tens to rugby players, Len Goodman was a fruit and vegetable barrow trader in the East End. Having then become a welder in the London Docks, his dream of becoming a professional footballer was quashed after he broke his ankle. When the doctor advised him to take up ballroom dancing to exercise the slowly healing joint, a dancing star was born.

The Len Goodman book signing takes place at 12.30pm on Thursday 4th December 2008 at WH Smith Westfield. Better Late Than Never is published by Ebury Press priced £18.99.
