No one can tell the story of the last few years of Mercurys private life - the ecstasies and the agonies - more accurately or honestly than Jim Hutton.

They laughed together, fought together and, in Mercurys final years, they often cried together.Freddie Mercury was forty-five when he died from AIDS in Huttons arms. No one can tell the story of the last few years of Mercurys private life - the ecstasies and the agonies - more accurately or honestly than Jim Hutton.
