Review
'A story of collaboration, of ideas generously supported, and criticised without mercy' * The Sunday Herald * 'McCann summons up ALS's unique atmosphere ... The joy of the book lies in the incisive contributions from comedy legends on everything from the second world war to class war.. It's exhilarating to read top-rank craftesmen discussing what they love doing' * The Guardian * 'You will laugh, you will learn, and you will, undoubtedly, start speaking in a silly voice.' * Word * 'A tragi-comedy of creative tension, personality conflict, endearing characters and enduring catch phrases' * The Times *
