Review
'This combination of niceness, with his natural volubility, creates Palin's expansiveness.' (David Baddiel
THE TIMES )
'Palin's style is so fluid, and his sincerity so palpable, that it is often easy to underestimate just how talented he is as a comedian, a broadcaster and a writer..... they are just too good and his is too modest.' (Ruth Cowen
THE SUNDAY EXPRESS )
'a real delight to read;' (
SAGA MAGAZINE )
'his showbiz observations are so absorbing..... Palin is an elegant and engaging writer.' (William Cook
THE GUARDIAN )
'Palin's steady eye, contemplative bent and instinct for honest appraisal make him the perfect chronicler of a frequently insane period which saw the 'Monty Python' team become the most celebrated comedians in the world.' (John O'Connell
TIME OUT )
'a slow burn, revealing its pleasures only gradually, and allowing readers the warm glow of hindsight denied its writer...... this book will be the perfect present.' (Marcus Berkmann
THE SPECTATOR )
'the charting of the haphazard and often perilous ascent of the Python phenomenon up the greasy pole of fame makes for delightful and often extraordinarily funny reading.... An entertaining and at times deeply moving read. With nearly two decades of recent dairies still untapped, we may confidently sit back and wait for more.' (Michael Simkins
THE MAIL ON SUNDAY )
'a wealth of fascinating stuff about Monty Python.' (William Cook
THE INDEPENDENT )
'our favourite TV explorer shows us the workings of an unstoppable machine.' (
DAILY EXPRESS )
'a riveting commentary to a remarkably creative decade.' (
ACADEMY )
