Audio extract

  

Barry Cryer has collaborated with all the greats from Max Miller to Tony Hancock, Bob Hope, Peter Cook and Dudley Moore, John Cleese, Frankie Howerd, Kenny Everett, Spike Milligan, Eric Sykes, Dave Allen, Richard Prior, Tommy Cooper, Les Dawson, Graham Chapman, the Two Ronnies, Morecambe and Wise - in fact, almost all the great comedians and comic writers since the mid 1950s.

This audio book is packed with jokes, fascinating asides, a huge range of real-life incidents and riveting behind-the-scenes portraits of famous names recounted by a master of comic timing.

 

'What's striking about this assortment of anecdotes and reminiscences is his [Cryers] good nature... There's real warmth in his relationships with Thora Hird, Willie Rushton and others.'
