Warum Schwangerschaft und Geburt immer noch mit vielen Tabus und falschen Annahmen behaftet sind, was einem als Schwangere und Mutter so alles passieren und entgegengeschleudert werden kann, was man so hört und liest und ungefragt gesagt bekommt, weil es tatsächlich alle besser wissen – das beschreibt dieses Hörbuch mit einer gehörigen Portion Selbstironie und dennoch unbeirrbarem Blick.

Ade Edmondson smashed onto the comedy circuit in the 1980s, stormed The Comedy Store and, alongside Rik Mayall, brought anarchy to stage and screen. How did a child brought up in a strict Methodist household – and who spent his formative years incarcerated in repressive boarding schools – end up joining the revolution? Well, he is part Norse. Could it be his ‘berserker’ heritage? With wisdom, nostalgia and uniquely observed humour, Ade traces his journey through life and comedy.

Sandi Toksvig is in the chair for every show bar one, in which Susan Calman steps in as temporary host. Subjects on the table for the team include NHS pay, a badger crash, commuter train standards, Russian activities in Crimea, dietary health scares, passport delays and black cab strikes.

And now he is ready to divulge the next chapter in bursts of hilarious Technicolor.
