Roger Daltrey,My Story

Roger Daltrey is the voice of a generation - the first generation to rebel, to step out of the shadows of the Second World War - to invent the concept of the teenager. This is his story from his birth during the Blitz, through tempestuous schooldays to his expulsion at 15 for a crime he didn't commit. Thanks to Mr Kibblewhite, his draconian headmaster, it could all have ended there. The life of a factory worker beckoned. But then came rock and roll. He made his first guitar from factory off-cuts and formed a band. The band became The Who... As the only working-class boy in the group, Roger's story is a triumphant tale of hard work and dedication.
