Thread Name: 'Sir' Spike Milligan
Subject: RE: 'Sir' Spike Milligan
Woops. Forgot to mention Spike. One of my favourite people in all the world...whatever nationality he claims. I recently saw a show about Harry Secombe called "The Trouble with Harry." Milligan comes to visit and the banter is great. They wander inside Harry's house and Secombe asks Spike to play the piano. There is a beautiful grand piano in the room covevered with framed pictures. Milligan quips first off I'm going to play these pictures. Absolutly brilliant. He made me laugh out loud, uncontollably on an Ulster bus, while reading Adolf Hitler my Part in his Downfall. Den
