I dont even buy green bananas anymore When the legendary comedian Barry Cryer died in January 2022 there was a vast outpouring of grief appreciation and anecdotes from the general public and fellow comics alike. Now his son Bob is doing what Barrys humility did not allow revealing the story of the man behind the jokes.This book is an ode both to Barrys incredible life and to the lessons he so generously imparted on the art of comedy during his sixtyyear career. Stretching from the music halls of the fifties via working alongside everyone from Morecambe and Wise to Kenny Everett and David Frost and into more recent times as a stalwart of Radio 4s longrunning Im Sorry I Havent a Clue where he worked with Rob Brydon and David Mitchell 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 Michael Palin and Eric Idle as well as Bobs own personal reflections on living and working with a comedy icon. Laced with candour warmth and filled with his trademark humour Barry Cryer Same Time Tomorrow 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.
