The Al Read Show 3

The third collection of classic sketches from a star of the golden age of radio comedy. With his well-known catchphrases 'Right Monkey' and 'You'll be lucky, I say, you'll be lucky', the immortal Al Read drew on a rich vein of Northern humour to bring us the Johnny know-all, the nagging wife in the kitchen and the horrible little boy in the Doctor's waiting room. A weekly audience of 35 million tuned in to catch the one-time sausage manufacturer from Salford turned household name. Enjoy those moments once again or discover Al's droll observational humour for the first time in this collection of his funniest sketches.

2Stoned is the volume everyone has been awaiting, and it doesn't disappoint

—— The Times

Oldham is a prose stylist of no little talent

—— Q Magazine

A witty, well-informed collection of fact and anecdote, full of fascinating bits and pieces

Goddard widens his previous book's mixture of detail and passionate celebration to Morrissey's entire aesthetic universe
