As kids we used to listen to this fantastic story on the radio every Sunday morning, back in the good old days when there was no morning TV.
I didn't realise until today that it was written by Spike Milligan. Thanks for nice memories Spike.
Badjelly is the story of a little boy and girl who go in search of their cow who has been cownapped by Badjelly the witch. They meet all sorts of characters along the way that could only ever come form Spike's bizarre imagination. I don't want to spoil the surprise of finding out about these characters by telling you about them know. But you will never have come across heroes and villains like these. The book is reproduced in Spikes own handwriting and he does all the illustrations. If you have never seen what Spike Milligan is capable of this is a great place to start.
