Henry Spurway - A Life in Showbusiness & Gambling
Aug 25, 2020
The 12th edition of Lifestory sees us joined by impressario and entrepreneur Henry Spurway, a man with a mountain of stories to tell having managed Billy Connolly on his first tour of Scotland as well as working with Chic Murray and Dusty Springfield and being heavily involved in the development of the gambling industry in the UK. Henry takes us from his early days in Nunraw, East Lothian to running The Rainbow Room and The Elmtree Inn, to fronting high end casinos and betting shops. With court cases and stars galore, Henry's life is packed to the brim with adventures from the 1960s to the present day.
