One of Scotland’s most beloved comedians continues to blaze a trail - this time taking a step into crime fiction. With her debut novel 'Nothing Left Unsaid', Janey Godley takes us to 1970s Glasgow via the diary of a dying mother.
In the tenements of Shettleston, strong women in tough circumstances learn when to keep their secrets - and when to reveal the truth. Join a comedy legend for a warm, hilarious and affecting hour with Ruth Wishart.

You’re awesome Janey, my father was born in Glasgow I grew up as an Australian but always have a familiarity with the Scots. Wishing you the best.

So much more than just an author chatting about a work of fiction. Thanks EBF for sharing this with us all. It’s warm, funny, poignant and thought provoking. All the best to Janey and Ashley for their forthcoming tour, and for the future.

'Nothing Left Unsaid' is a brilliant book. I got given it for Christmas. Vivid and gripping. I couldn't put it down. Christmas dinner was late!

Fascinating, talented woman. You capture the essence of a time and a place with humour, compassion and intelligence 💐from Canada. .

Love you Janey, a woman that makes me laugh a person that will say She is sorry for doing things she did wrong. She loves people in general. I must buy her books! I adore her. I wanted to see her but her last tour (as she said) didn't come to Dumfries this time and I am no well enough. But Janey thankyou,. You are there when I get all moody and upset with illneses' you make me laugh.

Glad to learn that Janey actually narrates her books, something more to look forward to…just love this woman’s unpretentiousness….Bravo girl, and much love from Merseyside xxx

Love Janey and loved this. Ruth is a perfect interviewer and, being very shallow, I would really like to know where she bought her gorgeous shirt.

Just read 'Nothing Left Unsaid', thoroughly enjoyed it; took me back to my own childhood days growing up in the 70s. Great read.

I remember my dad say when he was a young boy that the family were poor and to get an Orange for a Christmas present was a big thrill, this was in the 1940’s

5:59 I also drank out of a puddle as a child. My defence was that my favourite dog in the street, drank it first. It tasted vile, by the way.

I always wondered what happened to Nicola Sturgeon's estranged sister. Now I know.

Love dear Janey and have read her books. So sad that Ruth Wishart didn't do her research and thought Janey would be sweary in this type of venue -- really a disservice.
