About this listen

Packed full of incident and insight, No Cunning Plan is a funny, self-deprecating and always entertaining memoir by Sir Tony Robinson.

Sir Tony Robinson is a much-loved actor, presenter and author with a stellar career lasting over fifty years. In this autobiography he reveals how the boy from South Woodford went from child stardom in the first stage production of Oliver!, a pint-sized pickpocket desperately bleaching his incipient moustache, to comedy icon Baldrick, the loyal servant and turnip aficionado in Blackadder.

It wasn't all plain sailing though. Along the way he was bullied by Steve Marriott, failed to impress Liza Minnelli and was pushed into a stinking London dock by John Wayne. He also entertained us with Maid Marion and Her Merry Men (which he wrote and starred in) and coped manfully when locked naked outside a theatre in Lincoln during the live tour of comedy series Who Dares Wins. He presented Time Team for twenty years, watching countless gardens ruthlessly dug up in the name of archaeology, and risked life and limb filming The Worst Jobs in History.

Blackadder finally taught Baldrick to read!

First off Baldrick is great!! I watched Blackadder over and over as a kid. Tony's archeology shows are wonderful to watch. He gets right into them. He is a great narrator and I enjoy being read to by Baldrick. Early life is neat, fun stories then it draaaaaaggggs! He mentions 50 theatre productions and not much about them. Did blah in blah town with blah and blah. Lots of nothing to someone who doesn't know Amateur theatre in the 70's and 80's in England. Pick a few and elaborate suck me into amature theatre. Fun with John Wayne and then like a spark in the dark we are on to Blackadder and how wonderful it was. Then back to some Archeology and worst jobs and then it ends! Did he reach his word count? Did he die at the microphone? I guess we will never know.
