You wont regret it. If you ever see a copy of OJRIL knocking about, that's worth it to 9assuming you're a Grahame Chapman fan, of course.

There's quite a few copies on Amazon starting at 8 quid. I might pick up a copy - it looks like a fantastic book!

Found a very interesting book t'other day at work...it's called 'Slapstick! The Illustrated Story of Knockabout Comedy' by Tony Staveacre. I was absolutely stoked to find our boys in there! Anywho, I think these pics can also be found on Liv's site, but here they are from Tony's book:
Inside cover...
The famous story...
Introducing the lovely Aimi Macdonald...
Timbo and Cleesey...
More of the 1948 Show...
And the other page...

Got up today and read pg 343 on Teletext that Bill looks like Bruce Dickinson with a beard! I nearly choked on my piping hot tea!
