Voted "the funniest person of the millennium" in a BBC poll, this intimate and deeply personal portrait of comic genius Spike Milligan, is told through the eyes of his family. It features never-before-seen footage of Spike’s past, revealing him as a brilliant, tortured, and visionary man, who walked a thin line between genius and debilitating depression. The DVD features interviews with Eddie Izzard, Joanna Lumley, Eric Sykes, and Michael Palin; rare footage of Spike’s family in Woy Woy, near Sydney, where his parents lived for 40 years; and personal photos and memorabilia including Spike’s old home movies shot in the 1950s and 60s. Bonus features include commentaries by the director and Spike’s daughters as well as six mini-movies.
