On the occasion of the death of spike milligan, Cambridge News retells the tale of the involvement of Prince Charles and the Goons in the history of the game.

Extractions: Local historian Mike Petty takes a look at a celebrated day of reckoning in Cambridge with protagonists fuelled by Babycham and Guiness University 'winkers' in action THE headlines last week were dominated by the news of the death of Spike Milligan, the last of the Goons, and the tribute paid to him by one of his greatest fans, Prince Charles. Then came the furore caused by a flippant remark in Australia about Aborigines by Prince Philip, who is among other things Chancellor of Cambridge University. But there is a connection between the university, the Prince and the Goons that seems so far to have gone unrecorded and it concerns the ancient sport of tiddlywinks The pastime was first patented in London in 1888. It essentially consists of teams competing to squidge winks into a pot, players take turns and the first one to get them all in wins. Not much to it, you might think. But then in 1955 great academic brains did begin to think about the technicalities and at Cambridge University a group of undergraduates got together to form a club for the sole purpose of playing tiddlywinks. It was the first in history but being the first they had great difficulty in finding other groups to play against.

Extractions: Your browser does not support script Ahhh, the halcyon days before the advent of Political Correctness and alternative humour. The days when if it was funny then the joke was performed. The class system that really counted, ie those who got it and those who didn't! The Goon Show was the first real "Alternative Humour". It was truly different from the normal Music Hall type comedy that was recycled for British radio. It didn't pander to the naiveté that inflicted the funny bones of post war Britain. This was truly cerebral humour in it's truest sense. After all, the imagery of the crazy situations had to be present in the listener's mind before the humour struck home. The Goon Show was a revelation to all the latent eccentrics who populated the UK. Goon Show humour bridged political persuasion, the British class system. Academics, white-collar workers, blue-collar workers and even those just wearing vests all shared in the crazy, zany antics of Bluebottle, Eccles and Neddie et al. I have been a fan of the Goon Shows for as long as I can remember. Certainly since the mid 60's when my father used to play recordings of them to myself and my brother. More recently I have renewed my interest, allied with the advent of new technology, i.e. MP3 compressed audio. I am now setting out on an adventure to encode every episode of the Goons that I can get my hands on. I then want to make these files available to anyone who wants them!

Interview With Spike Milligan
I THINK I CAUGHT UP' with spike milligan. by Demetrius Romeo withRahni Sadler. There Aside Catching Up With spike milligan. spike

Extractions: This article was published in the Union Recorder, v75 no 5. The Union Recorder is published by the University of Sydney Union. Email: postmaster@union.usyd.edu.au. The article is reproduced by permission of the authors. Spike Milligan is currently in Australia, visiting family. "I came out for a holiday and my publisher got wind of it and said `you'll have to do some book signings out there'. So, I'm doing some book signings, Out there. I just wait for them to come in a taxi and pick me up and take me somewhere, and do something, get back in the taxi and come home. That's the whole essence of it, you know." But Spike's signings are not just in honour of his recently published books, the rewritten classics Lady Chatterley's Lover, Wuthering Heights and The Old Testament. "If I start reading from Lady Chatterley's Lover, I'll get into a chapter and afterwards they'll want to read it themselves but it will all be too familiar with them, having heard me read it. So I thought I might read some of my serious poetry." Many people don't acknowledge Spike's serious poetry. "I don't get recognised because they can't understand - Spike Milligan, being a serious poet? They won't have it." But he offers an example of his work, composed "from an incident that happened in my bedroom. He recites: Last night in the twilight gloom A butterfly flew into my room. Oh what beauty! Oh what grace! Who needs visitors from outer space?
