Stretching from the music halls of the fifties, via working alongside everyone from \u003cb\u003eMorecambe and Wise to Kenny Everett and David Frost\u003c\/b\u003e, and into more recent times as a stalwart of Radio 4’s long-running \u003cb\u003eI’m Sorry I Haven’t a Clue\u003c\/b\u003e, where he worked with \u003cb\u003eRob Brydon and David Mitchell\u003c\/b\u003e among many others, this book is a hugely entertaining insight into the life of a true comedy legend. Bob also shares a range of exclusive material unique to the Cryer family – including family photos, memorabilia, oral recordings, interviews with friends and colleagues (among them \u003cb\u003eMichael Palin and Eric Idle\u003c\/b\u003e) – as well as Bob’s own personal reflections on living and working with a comedy icon. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLaced with candour, warmth and filled with his trademark humour, \u003ci\u003eBarry Cryer: Same Time Tomorrow?\u003c\/i\u003e is not just a wonderfully witty and affectionate biography of a father by a son, but a heartwarming insight into a vanishing era of comedy.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rarewaves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41037981974625,"sku":"9781526665317","price":18.11,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0092\/7504\/8033\/files\/orig_27650973.jpg?v=1721981556","url":"https:\/\/www.rarewaves.com\/products\/9781526665317-same-time-tomorrow","provider":"Rarewaves.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
