Being a connoisseur of the show and knowing the scripts backwards, it was annoying that quite a bit was edited out from some episodes. Still the number one British comedy.

....not in this book, it's outstanding, but listening to Richard and Lesley talk at the end, it was a done deal that she would narrate the third book. I have since seen that she did not. I really don't want to listen to someone else's interpretation of these amazing characters. I think I will buy the book and just imagine Lesley reading it.

really enjoyed the first and last chapters read by Arnold, but why did he not do the rest? Having someone else read an Autobiography just loses credibility but I got used to it and enjoyed the book regardless.

Not having the protagonist read an autobiography makes it lose credibility. Stephen Hendry's book was better for that reason, despite his story being less interesting.

The two narrators were perfect. One of Hornby's top 3 books for sure. All done in one week's commute. Recommended.

This sequel is not as good as the first book, but is not helped by not having Stephen Fry on board. Martin Freeman is too monotone.
