Worth reading: Yes

Summary:

This is not a Goodies book. Bill says this on the front cover. This is Bill Oddie’s autobiography.

Most of this book is written as a self-interview and it works really well that way. Bill give us insights into his early childhood and the problems around his Mother’s illness. Bill also share’s how his interesting in bird-watching started and where it has taken him today beyond The Goodies.

What is very interesting is his associations with the Monty Python crew as well as the Goodies team. He also talks about his other work beyond and before The Goodies, and there is quite a large amount of it. I was personally surprised that he has done so much other work beyond The Goodies, and he makes reference in his autobiography that this is the perception of most people in general.

Certainly worth a read.
