Jonny Kennedy was the star of the unforgettable Emmy award-winning documentary "The Boy Whose Skin Fell Off". He was an extraordinary character determined to live an ordinary life despite being born with the agonising condition Dystrophic Epidermolysis Bullosa (EB), which meant that his skin could literally fall off at the slightest touch. It was a daily struggle he faced with courage, determination and wit, offering inspiration to millions around the world. Tragically, Jonny was just 36 when he lost a final battle to skin cancer. This is his moving, honest and uplifting story.

With a weakness for women, good times and binge drinking, it seemed inevitable that Ashley Hames would turn cult hero with "Sin Cities", blazing a toxic trail though a minefield of debauchery and fantasy across the globe. As clown prince of LIVE TV, he happily changed his name by deed poll to News Bunny and produced such lowbrow classics as "Topless Darts". A few months down the line his career had him hoisted up on meat hooks, tortured, clamped and generally trampled on in the name of entertainment. It was only when the cameras stopped rolling that it got messy. In this book, Ashley investigates the sexual habits of some of the most extraordinary people on the planet - from the bizarre to the unimaginable - and somehow helps it all make perfect sense.
