Foster Kid A Liverpudlian Childhood
Paul Barber, the actor best known for his roles as Denzil in ONLY FOOLS AND HORSES and Horse in THE FULL MONTY, grew up in 1950s Liverpool. After the death of his mother, Paul and his brothers and sister spent the rest of their childhood in a succession of children's and foster homes. Paul left care at the age of sixteen, and three years later landed his first acting role, by accident, in the musical HAIR which put him on the path to London and a successful career in show business. FOSTER KID is a frank, sometimes funny, account of a young boy's life spent in care, his troubled youth and how one lucky break got him to where he is today.
