Memoir from national treasure Brian Blessed
Brian Blessed grew up in Goldthorpe, Yorkshire, and trained at
the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. His television appearances
include Z-Cars, Boy Dominic, I, Claudius, Cold Comfort Farm, The
Little World of Don Camillo, Blackadder, My Family and Other
Animals, The History of Tom Jones and Peppa Pig. His films include
The Trojan Women, Flash Gordon, Henry V, Much Ado About Nothing,
Hamlet, As You Like It, Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves and Star Wars
Episode I: The Phantom Menace.
Brian is also an explorer and mountaineer. He became the oldest man
to reach the North Magnetic Pole on foot in 1999 and to reach
28,000 feet of Everest without oxygen. He lives in Surrey with his
wife, Hildegard Neil. This is his sixth book.
Stuffed with riotous and hilarious tales . . . never less than
entertaining and in some parts, as in his relationship with Peter
O'Toole, even quietly revelatory.

Fizzing entertainment

A hoot
*Scotsman*
Absolute Pandemonium is exactly what you would expect only louder,
taller and bigger and more so . . . pleasingly bonkers and bloody
entertaining.
*Observer*
The pages of Absolute Pandemonium reverberate with the sound of
that inimitable voice and his appetite for life.
*Sunday Express*
He bursts onto the page and then roars through his experiences.
It's very funny.
*The Stage*
The beauty about actor, adventurer and Everest climber Brian
Blessed's uproarious memoir is that his huge voice leaps out at you
from every page.
