Michael Barrymore is said to be in rehearsals to play Spike Milligan in a new theatre production, what an obvious choice!
Spike Milligan, the naturally funny man who died in 2002 must be turning in his grave.
The only similarity i can see between the two men is that they both suffered from manic depression and nervous breakdowns. I have a terrible feeling that anyone watching another of Barrymore’s comebacks may have the same fate in store.

Only one Spike Milligan, Michael Barrymore falls a long way short of the great man, he should stick to ‘Stike It Lucky’.
