DYSLEXIA DAYS

Henry Winkler - aka The Fonz - was the coolest guy on the small screen in the 1970s and '80s. But the Happy Days star says he was riddled with self-doubt during his years at the top.

From the moment he first shucked on The Fonz's leather jacket in the beloved sitcom, he suffered from crippling anxiety because he struggled to read the words to the script - and it wasn't until he was 31 that he discovered he had dyslexia.

The actor recently released his memoir, Being Henry: The Fonz... and Beyond, detailing his humiliating childhood, in which his German parents referred to him as "dummer hund", meaning "dumb dog", due to his undiagnosed learning difficulties.
