Items related to Memories of Milligan
Creative, inspirational and often contrarian, Spike Milligan was one of Britain's best-loved comedians. In Memories of Milligan, his friend and manager Norma Farnes interviews those who knew him, including Eric Sykes, Denis Norden, Joanna Lumley, Michael Palin, Barry Humphries, Stephen Fry and Eddie Izzard. Rich in anecdotes and humorous exchanges, their recollections create an affectionate portrait of a brilliant man and the demons that drove him.

Review:
About the Author:
‘Keeper of the flame Norma Farnes gathers a cast of the great and the good... who look mainly back with affection and make a pretty good case for his centrality to post-war British humour.’ Belfast Telegraph
‘No one is more fearlessly realistic about his complex character than the collector and editor of these memories, Norma Farnes... this puzzling, troubled comic genius comes credibly out of these memories.’ The Oldie
Reviews for ‘Spike: An Intimate Memoir’:
'Compelling... you cannot stop reading, so revealing is it of the tortured individual that lurked behind the public facade.'
Sean O'Hagan, Observer
'Written with infectious verve... a cheery book.'
Humphrey Carpenter, Sunday Times
Norma Farnes was Spike Milligan’s agent, manager and friend for over 35 years. She lives in Yorkshire and London.
