About this product

Product Information

The Bible According to Spike Milligan is an irreverent but very funny spoof of The Old Testament in which, in his own inimitable fashion, Spike Milligan gives his version of the best known biblical stories. In the Bible, according to Spike Milligan- In the beginning God created the Heaven and Earth and darkness was upon the face of the deep; this was due to a malfunction at Lots Road Power Station...And God said 'Let there be light'. 'Desperately funny, vivid, vulgar' Sunday Times 'Milligan is the Great God to all of us' John Cleese 'The Godfather of Alternative Comedy' Eddie Izzard 'That absolutely glorious way of looking at things differently. A great man' Stephen Fry Spike Milligan was one of the greatest and most influential comedians of the twentieth century. Born in India in 1918, he served in the Royal Artillery during WWII in North Africa and Italy. At the end of the war, he forged a career as a jazz musician, sketch-show writer and performer, before joining forces with Peter Sellers and Harry Secombe to form the legendary Goon Show. Until his death in 2002, he had success as on stage and screen and as the author of over eighty books of fiction, memoir, poetry, plays, cartoons and children's stories. %%%The Bible According to Spike Milligan is an irreverent but very funny spoof of The Old Testament in which, in his own inimitable fashion, Spike Milligan gives his version of the best known biblical stories.

Spike Milligan is one of those people who can see the funny side of life even when there isn't any!
Spike Milligan is one of those people who can see the funny side of life even when there isn't any! I bought this book for my Mrs who has been trying to get a copy of it for about 20 years so I grabbed a copy to surprise her and help her come out of a Deep Depressive Funk she had fallen into and it hasn't disappointed. She properly laughed out loud ten times on the first page alone, she is now reading it at about a page a day as her sides hurt too much if she reads too much of it in one go. If you want to have a great laugh while learning a bit about what the Bible is all about then this is the book for you, if you don't want to laugh at a religious book then buy any of Spike's any other books from his time as a soldier during WWII.
