Welcome to Just a Minute!

Meer over het boek

In this first ever official companion, Nicholas Parsons tells the fascinating story of the much-loved panel game. Over the decades, the greats of British comedy have entertained listeners with performances that have come to define our comic heritage—from Kenneth Williams' outrageously funny "battles" with Sheila Hancock, Clement Freud's acerbic wit, and Derek Nimmo's tall tales to Paul Merton's imaginative flights of fancy, Julian Clary's flagrant innuendos, and Pam Ayres' poetic humor. Welcome to Just a Minute! is an entertaining journey through British comedy history and a master class in comic timing, verbal dexterity, and sharp one-liners.
