4.0 out of 5 stars Great little book, 29 Dec 2007

By	Charles "mrfreedom" (England) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

I always think books like this are perfect for the bath or snuggling up with in an armchair. It is funny, inoffensive and relaxing. It pokes fun at people without being too sour.
There are some corking examples of stupidity here, some answers that defy belief and others that will have you roaring with laughter. And none have appeared in issues of Private Eye - so worry not about reading ones you may have read before.
Dumb Britain is a great idea and there will surely be sequels. Maybe it'll go on to rival the 'Colemanballs' books for longevity...

5.0 out of 5 stars A great buy!, 21 Nov 2008

By	Donna "A period drama addict" (Hornchurch, Essex UK) - See all my reviews

I bought this as a "tree" present for my husband last Christmas and I can honestly say that this was a star buy. He has read it over and over again. He has favourite snippits that he frequently recites to me, and I often hear him chuckling away at some of the incredibly hilarious things people say, particularly when under pressure. Worth every penny!

4.0 out of 5 stars Some great answers in this short book, 2 Feb 2008

By	James (UK) - See all my reviews

A good collection of stupid answers to quiz questions.

Occasionally the right answers are not obvious (and not provided) but mostly the howlers are very funny.

I was at school with Marcus but have not seen him since, but his books are always worth buying.

2.0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
I have really enjoyed reading Marcus Berkmann's books, particularly Brain Men. I was expecting some laugh out loud wrong answers in this book but never really managed anything... Read more
