Description
A Conversation With Spike by John Somerville. Located at Stephens House and Gardens, Finchley, London. It shows Spike Milligan sitting on a bench, adorned with figures from his life. Widely regarded as the 'Godfather of alternative comedy' Spike Milligan kept Britain laughing for fifty years. He first became famous in the 1950s for writing and starring in 'The Goon Show' on BBC radio, wrote 83 books for both adults and children, performed on stage and screen, wrote and played music and campaigned about the environment. The statue was installed by The Finchley Society of which he was president. He lived from 1955 to 1974 in Holden Road, Woodside Park and often visited the House & Gardens. The statue of this comic genius sitting on a bench encourages a 'Conversation with Spike'.
