ISIHAC merchandise update 11/05/2009 00:00 0ST
Posted by lisa * The current release date for "I’m Sorry I Haven't A Clue - Volume 11", according to http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1405688378, is July 2nd. This will be released as a 2-CD Audiobook and will also be available for digital download.
Here's the description from Amazon: This eleventh collection of the antidote to panel games finds the late Humphrey Lyttelton giving regular panelists Tim Brooke-Taylor, Barry Cryer and Graeme Garden silly things to do to - along with special guests Stephen Fry, Jack Dee, Rob Brydon & Jeremy Hardy. Highlights include "One Song to the Tune of Another", "84 Chicken Cross Road", "Sound Charades", Notes & Queries, Uxbridge English Dictionary, Tennis Chat-up Lines, Swanee Kazoo and, of course, the brilliantly baffling, fiendishly funny Mornington Crescent. So get ready to laugh out loud as Humph and the gang indulge in more wonderful wordplay, accompanied by Colin Sell on the piano and the lovely Samantha, who likes to sit on Humph's left hand
* Scheduled for an October 8th release is "The Clue Bible: The Fully Authorised History of "I'm Sorry I Haven't a Clue", from Footlights to Mornington Crescent" by Jem Roberts. The book cover currently being shown on Amazon (http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1848091303/ ) says it has a "Forward by Graeme Garden, Afterward by Tim Brook-Taylor, and Something by Barry Cryer". | Here's the book's product description from Amazon: 'It's a great missing piece of the jigsaw - people go on endlessly about Python and Peter Cook, which is all well and good but there's basically this great corpus of work stretching for decades - and consistently good. I mean very very few traditions...I can't think of one! I mean, Christ, it's forty-five years! A major piece of work, and universally loved' So says John Lloyd, brains behind "Blackadder", "QI", "Spitting Image", and so much besides - all shows with a massive debt to "I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again" and "I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue". Together they form a body of work stretching across five decades, from Cambridge in 1960 to today's world-beating Antidote to Panel Games, a laughter-bringer which has inspired unparalleled adoration in millions over fifty series. "The 'I'm Sorry' Bible" tells the whole story, from Footlights to Broadway to the ferret-filled madness of Radio Prune - comedy's answer to the rock & roll revolution of the sixties. Offering an exhaustive guide to the comedy world that brought us Mornington Crescent, besides episode guides, glossaries and rare facsimiles, the Bible will take the story right up to the present day, celebrating the lives of Willie Rushton, Sir David Hatch and of course, the irreplaceable Humphrey Lyttelton. With exclusive input from the Teams, plus Bill Oddie, Stephen Fry, Bill Bailey, Neil Innes and many more, this is the long overdue authoritative, entertaining and above all, very silly lasting celebration of an unsung comic legacy that both shows so richly deserve."
