| Description |
An hilariously ingenious tribute to one of the world's best loved comedy acts, Roy Smiles' nostalgic look at the dying days of the Goon Show is a superb mix of ridiculous fun tempered with genuine sadness. Revolving around Spike Milligan's struggle to regain his mental health after his nervous breakdown in 1960 the action ricochets between a psychiatric hospital, a BBC studio and the local pub. In a valiant effort to get Milligan to produce more of his inspired scripts, fellow Goons Secombe and Sellers, along with the show's presenter Wallace Greenslade, concoct a menagerie of ridiculous characters to coax, coerce or con Milligan into cooperating with them. |
