   Extractions: d February 27, 2002, Sussex Terence Alan 'Spike' Milligan was born on April 16, 1918, in Ahmed Nagar, India - the son of an army Captain. The family came back to England in 1933 when his father retired from the army, and Spike later studied at Lewisham Polytechnic, while playing the trumpet in local jazz bands. He was conscripted at the outbreak of the Second World War, serving in the Royal Artillery in Italy and North Africa, where he met Harry Secombe. After the war, Secombe introduced Milligan to Peter Sellers and Michael Bentine and comedy history was made. They performed as a quartet in the Grafton Arms pub in London's Victoria, which led to the radio show The Crazy People, which was renamed The Goon Show after the success of its first series led the BBC to drop its objection to the name. The consistently groundbreaking show, the most influential in British radio comedy, ran for nine years from 1951. After the team dissolved - save for the 1963 TV puppet show The Telegoons and a 1972 one-off reunion - Milligan continued to work in radio, creating the Omar Khayyam Show, before moving to television.

    Extractions: As we're on this track I ask him who was his most exciting woman. "The sexiest was named Juliette," he says without hesitation. "I was about 29 and she was in all my shows. And when I was writing I used to have this tiny bedroom above my office in Shepherd's Bush because... sometimes I used to sleep there." He clears his throat. "She was beautiful. It was beautiful. But my greatest love was a woman I met in 1946 in Naples. She was named Maria Antoinetta Pantani, although everyone called her Toni. "I was playing in a jazz trio that was touring through Italy with lots of other entertainers and she was in the Italian Corps de Ballet, which was scheduled to come with us. So we all got in this old charabanc and set off through southern Italy. I couldn't sit next to her as some awful gunner was there, but I managed to bag the seat behind her and she left her hand dangling over the back so that I could hold it. I used to watch her dance every night. She was the one. Capri was our last stop. We swam every morning and we had lunch and lay together in the cool of the afternoon listening to the wash of the sea through the windows."

    Extractions: Spike Milligan is that curious combination, a comedian and philosopher. The following is an excerpt from an interview a couple of years ago. An environmental campaign Spike has recently been involved with is The Right to Peace and Quiet (now The Noise Network). He regards noise as a form of pollution which is reducing the quality of many people's lives. "Noise addresses you wherever you go: there's noise on the train, the plane, in the supermarket, even when you go into one of those new toilets in London. One day I thought, who are the composers? What kind of respect can you have for composers who play their music for people to defecate to?" Spike moved to his current home in rural Sussex to escape the noise in London. He sympathizes totally with people who feel they are being driven over the edge by blaring televisions, hi-fi's, and barking dogs. "We have had thousands of letters from people forced to leave their homes because of noise. And there seems to be little that can be done about it." Spike believes it should be made law that those who make other people's lives misery by making excessive noise should be sent to prison for a year. Noise does not appear to be a problem where Spike lives now and has been living for the last three years. His house is located just a few miles outside of the south east coastal town of Rye. No trains or buses go past his door. His living room window commands an inspiring view of quiet, still flat fields, and the only sounds to be heard are our own voices.

    Extractions: He was the son of an Army Officer posted to the Empire, and was born in (what was then British) India. Although he fought for the United Kingdom during the War and lived in England from 1933 until his death, in his later life he had so much bureaucratic flak about the official status of his citizenship that he took an Irish passport instead (his parents were Irish, although all of Ireland was part of Britain when he was born). He was offered citizenship through naturalisation, but Spike felt it ridiculous that a person who (but for a legal technicality to do with his date of birth) was British should be forced to take an oath with a room full of foreigners. Spike served in the Royal Artillery during the Second World War, which wasn't the best place in the world to develop an interest in gardening, but probably helped him secure a sense of humour amidst the tragic but ridiculous events occuring around him (it certainly helped his bank balance when he published his war diaries many years later to popular acclaim).

Milligan had been the last surviving member of the quartet. Prince Charles said: "It was an immense sadness to learn of Spike Milligan's death and my heart goes out to all his family. "Personally, but along with so many others, I shall miss his irreverent and hysterical presence and can only say that the world really will be the poorer for his departure."

    Extractions: Spike Milligan called himself a clown. He was the master of the surreal, whose humour was anarchic, spontaneous and frequently unexpected. But his life was darkened by profound depression. He made his reputation in the 1950s in The Goon Show on radio. He originated the idea, wrote much of the zany fantasy in the programme, and played many of the parts. Although his later career took in TV, films and novel writing, poetry, children's books, volumes of autobiography and even songs, he was irritated that he was still mainly associated with The Goon Show. Army experiences inspired several books The son of an Army warrant officer, Terence Milligan was born in India in 1918 and received his early education at convent schools in India and Burma. On his father's retirement the family returned to Britain, living in south east London. At the outbreak of war in 1939, Milligan became an unskilled labourer at Woolwich Arsenal. On Saturday nights he played the trumpet in a jazz group.
