Fight!: Thirty Years Not Quite at the Top by Harry Hill

A TIMES BEST COMEDY BOOK OF 2021

'The funniest man in the world has written the funniest book in the world' DAVID WALLIAMS

'A brilliant insight into what it takes to go from regular funny bloke to one of the best stand-ups I've ever seen' LEE MACK

'Proper laugh-out-loud funny, fascinating, and...a must for anyone who's interested in the business of laughter' JOE LYCETT

After a childhood spent making smoke bombs, killing wasps and carving soap in 70s Kent, Harry Hill then found himself in charge of hundreds of sick people as a junior doctor. Out of his depth and terrified, he chucked it all in to pursue his dream of becoming a stand-up comedian. Battling his way through the 90s comedy circuit he quickly rose to become a household name and one of the UK's most celebrated comics, almost making it to the top of the showbiz tree...

From being chased by an angry heckler and getting fired from Capital Radio to a bizarre assassination attempt and cutting up Simon Cowell's trousers, Harry takes an honest and hilarious look at the ups and downs of his life and career, finding joy in failure and creativity in struggle, whilst never forgetting that life is short.

Fight! Reviews

Harry Hill is one of the funniest, kindest, smartest people I know. This book manages to be proper laugh out loud funny, fascinating AND doubles up as probably the best book of advice on how to be a comedian I've ever read. A must for anyone who's interested in the business of laughter.

-- Joe Lycett
The funniest man in the world has written the funniest book in the world -- David Walliams
There's only three things you need to be a brilliant comedian. Funny bones, the ability to write and terrible dress sense. Harry's got the lot. This book is a brilliant insight in to what it takes to go from regular funny bloke to one of the best stand ups I've ever seen -- Lee Mack
The funniest book I've read in years - no fight whatsoever -- Adam Kay

About Harry Hill

More recently he has starred in three series of ITV's Harry Hill's Alien Fun Capsule, and BBC2's Harry Hill's World of TV. He is the longstanding voice of ITV's You've Been Framed, and is the presenter of Channel 4's Junior Bake Off.
