Graham said, he preferred his life with booze in it, but he couldn’t live much longer if he didn’t change his ways. His book is going to be published on 23rd October of this month.




Meanwile Carrie Fisher admitted that she had a problem learning her lines when shooting for the Star Wars movie. She could not remember them unless and until they were written on her hands or on card.

“I’m bad at learning my lines — it’s humiliating. There’s no way unless you put cards and stuff or write the lines on my hand,” she said.
