Summary
When social distancing is over, can people still keep their distance?
I only do the things I like now, rather than the things I should - is that alright?
And these days, why has everyone got an opinion on everything and insist on sharing it?
Oh. Scratch that one.
From one of Britain's most-loved national treasures, comes a much-needed Bible of straight-talking honesty and sharp observational humour: following an unprecedented time of collective global insanity, Freddie is ready to impart his effortless charm, wit and wisdom on a wild array of topics.
From the significant: climate change - maybe it's our time to go? To the time-worn: what even is political correctness and has the world really gone mad? To the essential: just what do you get when you receive the coveted Toby Carvery Gold Card?
In Right, Said Fred, Freddie takes you on a whirlwind tour of his brain as he ponders more of life's most unfathomable questions.

Merry little listen
A good listen whilst on a couple of dog walks. Told extremely well and in which some parts I did really laugh out load in public.

Easy to listen to during COVID isolation...
A relatable, if nothing groundbreaking easy listen whilst recovering from some mild COVID symptoms...
Easy to forget it’s not actually the author reading it - a good choice of narrator IMO
Can relate to and agree with most of the views in the book - with the notable exception that I am in the “Hamilton is a bit of a dick” camp... but that’s just my opinion, other people think he’s amazing and no one is going to die because of it either way... which I think is one of the main points made by the book.
Worth a listen if you like Fred,cricket and are over 40 (or 50...) and don’t get the hype of social media...

Great to pass the time
Andrew 'Freddie' Flintoff takes on many different topics in this rambling response to the pandemic and it's limitation on what we can do, where we can go and who we can see.
It's part autobiography - mostly about his roles in Top Gear, Talk Sport and In a League of their Own. To me, however, Flintoff will always be an iconic cricketer and it was for this reason I picked up the book.
It was a great bit of escapism, with Freddie's opinions on all sorts of things put down on paper almost like a stream of consciousness, such that he does contradict himself (by his own admission) quite often. But if you're reading this you're very unlikely to be expecting the author to come up with any solutions... it's more like chatting with a mate, a beer and pub (ah... bliss!!) Only thing wrong is the ridiculous subheading for the book (I mean publisher... really?) but if you ignore this it's a great way to pass a few evenings.

FRED SAID IT RIGHT
A light uncomplicated listen. Fun with great informative stories. A lovely lockdown day time filler.

Great book.. Just ended way to soon.
Please write another! I absolutely loved this book! Very entertaining. But remember if you are wearing headphones and start laughing you do look strange.
But who cares its obviously worth it!
Thanks Andrew xx

Disappointing aimless ramble of unconnected opinions
I was expecting this to be so much more than it is. If you are a fan of Andrew Flintoff you may well enjoy this audio book.
I think it is far to expensive and has precious little content of any worth.
The price on audible at close to £30 is ludicrous!
