Minder
Annual 1980 The original Minder Annual, published in 1980 is an excellent source of information for any Minder fanatic. Apart from the exceedingly dodgy cartoon storylines (in which the character of Arthur seems to be sprouting a nice moustache, black shirts and white ties) it provides lots of information on Dennis Waterman. In fact you could think that Arthur is only really an extra in the series if you read this annual from back to front! The whole annual seems to be dedicated to Dennis Waterman and Terry McCann. That said, you can find out what Dennis thinks about his character of Terry, Dennis Waterman's acting career, Dennis Waterman - "The Singer", and an insight into how an episode of Minder is made. The book shows some very good behind the scenes footage, and stories about the production process. The pictures from the Dennis Waterman "Putting On The Style" clothes section of this annual have been left out for obvious reasons. This book is certainly worth tracking down, originally priced at £1.95 if you only ever buy 1 Minder book, this is the one to get. |

Arthur Daley's Guide to Doing It Right The creator of Minder puts himself in the position of Arthur Daley and tells how to get along in life discussing such great topics as "A gentleman's club", "The Arthur Daley workout", "English as it's spoke and writ" and "The Last Journey". This book contains some very good cartoon illustrations of Arthur and Terry as well as photos from the series. Two editions exist, the newer version is shown on the right in red. |
 |
The recommended selling price of the book when it first appeared was £2.95 and is described on it's back cover as "A personal message from the star of the internationally popular TV series 'Minder'". An excellent cockney rhyming slang guide at the back of this book in the "lexicon" chapter.

Not strictly a
Minder book, but very much related to the series. This book was
first published in 1985 and like most other books mentioned here is
now sadly deleted. This book details most of the programmes produced by Euston
Films including The Sweeney, Out, Widows, Special Branch,
Reilly-Ace-Of-Spades Fox and Minder.
This book together with photographs charts the beginning of Euston Films and chronicles an in depth look of how the shows are produced from the drawing board to our TV sets. The book is packed with 228 pages of information. A behind the scenes guide on how an episode of Minder was filmed is contained here too! An excellent read! |

Audio Book Dennis Waterman has also recorded this in an audio book format. |
