Barry Cryer has been making people laugh for over 50 years and
continues to be at the top of his game. In his time he has worked
with, and become great friends with, most of the greats of the
comedy world - such icons as Tommy Cooper, Morecambe and Wise, John
Cleese, Ronnie Corbett, Ronnie Barker, Michael Palin, Alan Bennett,
Groucho Marx, Jack Benny, Frankie Howerd, Kenny Everett, Bruce
Forsyth, Les Dawson...the list is endless. In this book, he
recounts many stories about the great names, some very funny, some
poignant. He talks fascinatingly about humour and the things and
people that amuse him. Furthermore, many of these big names have
stories to tell, and comments to make, about Barry. He is a
universally loved and respected man, and the warmth felt for him is
evident on every page. Writer, entertainer, singer, talking head
and a supremely funny man, it is all in this book in bite-sized
chunks that are fascinating to dip in and out of - if you can put
it down. The riveting text is spiced with nearly 400 illustrations
from the Cryer personal collection and selected others. Go behind
the scenes of the cult that is "I'm Sorry", "I Haven't A Clue",
meet Tim Brooke-Taylor, Graeme Garden and Jeremy Hardy. Learn more
about the great 'Humph'. Read the ad libs! Barry Cryer is one of
the great names of British comedy. This is a light-hearted, amusing
and intriguing tribute to Barry and a celebration of the best of
British comedy. It is a must for anyone with a sense of humor.
Especially if they take humor seriously.
