TOM BAKER'S Intro for "Little Britain" Book

From The Introduction Page:

Once in a lifetime a book come along that changes the way we think, the way we feel, the way we perceive the world. This is not that book. Hello, I am a man. Instead Matt Lucas and David Williams (I will not call him 'Walliams'. It irritates me and Williams is his real name anyway) have cobbled together this volume of 'sketches' or 'skits' or 'sketches' from the television series 'Little Britain', or, as it was known in France, Merde.

Oh my sweet potatoes!

Thirdly, it is a great honour for me to write this foreword. I regard 'Little Britian' as one of the finest pieces of work I've ever been associated with - even better than the Super Noodles advert I recently voiced. I greatly admire the work of Lucas and Wolliams. The way they dress up as either women or gays over and over again never fails to bring a smile upon my beautiful face. I will always look back with great fondness on that morning I spent in a voiceover booth reading off what I can only describe as verbal excrement and for which I was paid forty pounds and the opportunity to observe Lucas and Welliams engaging in a sexual act (an offer I took up, incidentally, but would advise others to pass on).

To be honest, this show isn't really my thing. If I want a good laugh I'll watch 'Animal Hospital'. There's nothing I like more than seeing a hedgehog that's been run over and left for dead at the side of an A-Road or a much-loved dog that has gone blind and needs to be put down. Ha ha. But I hope you enjoy this book. Apparently there is a joke on page 85, though I haven't been able to find it yet.

God Bless Me,

Sir Tom Baker OBE

PS. Wasn't I good in 'Doctor Who'?

excerpt from page 85:

Tom V/O: With nothing on the telly except repeats of Dr Who, Medics and that episode of Blackadder II I'm in, Lou and his friend choose a video tape.
