One of the greatest achievements in comedy. A work of staggering geniusDavid Walliams, author of The Boy in the Dress, Gangsta Granny and Billionaire Boy
I haven’t known many geniuses in my life. Some brilliantly smart people, but only a tiny handful would I class as geniuses. I would class Douglas, because he saw things differently, and he was capable of communicating the way he saw things, and once he explained things the way he saw them, it was almost impossible to see them the way you used to see themNeil Gaiman, author of Good Omens, Stardust and American Gods

Really entertaining and funMichael Palin, broadcaster and comedian (Monty Python)
