Adrian accidentally building up a gigantic phone bill that he then has to hide from his parents must have its modern-day parallel. Humour arises from the outworking of larger social forces within a very ordinary household in a very ordinary part of Middle England.This classic of comic fiction is hilariously read by Stephen Mangan, who played Adrian Mole in the The Cappuccino Years and also starred in The Green Wing as the hapless Guy Secretan. Albert and Edna have three great-grandchildren - Glenn, William and Gracie - and a great-great-grandchild (unborn as of 2008).

Upon this discovery, Dad throws them out of the window, angrily declaring, “I’m not having you messing around with drugs! While his parents have reconciled after both embarked on disastrous affairs, Adrian is shocked to learn of his mother's pregnancy.

The second theme is depiction of the social and political situation in Britain, with particular reference to left-wing politics in the 1980s in the first three books. He has no qualms about showing favouritism for his three children - his favourite was always Rosie, which is why he took it so hard when he discovers Rosie is not his. Telling us candidly about his parents' marital troubles, The Dog, his life as a tortured poet and 'misunderstood intellectual', his love for the divine Pandora and his horror at learning of his mother's pregnancy, Adrian's painfully honest diary is a hilarious and heartfelt chronicle of misspent adolescence.
