Author, broadcaster, former Ballroom Dancer and indylive.radio DJ Frank “Frankie Boy” McGroarty, has just released the third of his trilogy of books based on his time as a redcoat at Butlins Ayr.
In this interview, James E and Frank chat about the creative process, what it was really like working at Butlins (spoiler: yes, people regularly asked “What time does Midnight Cabaret Start!) and which of the characters is most closely based on Frank himself.
