From brutal schooldays to 80s anarchy, through The Young Ones and beyond, Berserker! is the one-of-a-kind, fascinating memoir from an icon of British comedy, Adrian Edmondson. Berserk: out of control with anger or excitement; wild or frenzied. Berserkers: an elite Norse fighting corp who, apparently off their tits on hallucinogenic drugs, fought with a particular fury and senseless abandon still present in many Scandinavian heavy metal groups. Ade Edmondson smashed onto the comedy circuit in the 1980s, stormed The Comedy Store and, alongside Rik Mayall, brought anarchy to stage and screen. How did a child brought up in a strict Methodist household – and who spent his formative years incarcerated in repressive boarding schools – end up joining the revolution? Well, he is part Norse. Could it be his berserker heritage? With wisdom, nostalgia and uniquely observed humour, Ade traces his journey through life and comedy: starting out on the alternative scene, getting arrested in Soho, creating his outrageously violent characters and learning more about his curious (possibly Scandinavian) heritage. With star-studded anecdotes and set to a soundtrack of pop hits which transport the reader through time, it’s a memoir like no other.
British crime drama starring Paul Bettany and Stephen Graham as police officer brothers who struggle to maintain their sense of morality while investigating a murder. With their father Lenny (Brian Cox) also an officer of the law in his heyday, policing seems to run in the veins of Joe and Chrissie Fairburn (Bettany and Graham). However, when a young girl is discovered murdered - the most horrific crime to afflict the community in recent memory - the brothers face a stern test of their mettle. A local convicted paedophile Jason Buleigh (Ben Crompton) is their prime suspect but they struggle to locate concrete evidence of his involvement. Disturbed by the fact that his own daughter is around the same age as the murdered girl, Joe decides that using the strong-arm tactics favoured in his father's day is the way ahead. However, when they drive Jason out to a remote area one night in the hope of eliciting a confession events threaten to spiral out of control...
