Meet the human cannonball, who has been blasted to Ilford from Belgium by mistake. Discover what happens when Rapunzel gets an intercom. Learn how Joe has blown the programme budget on a life-size ice sculpture of Tim Henman. And prepare for a fly on the wall documentary about working behind-the-scenes on a sketch show.

My (Illustrated) Autobiography

‘Joyfully absurd and hilarious.’ ADAM KAY 
'One of the funniest things I’ve ever read. It is brilliant.' CLAUDIA WINKLEMAN 
 
Here before you is Joe Wilkinson's brilliantly absurd and utterly fictional account of his time on - and briefly off - planet Earth. 
 
Through cartoon stories (illustrated by Henry Paker) Joe recounts the defining moments and bizarre encounters of his imaginary life – from his schoolboy misfortunes to his formative years on the dating scene, to his money-making schemes and globetrotting adventures. 
 
With tall stories including… 
 
-Winning ‘most nits’ at school 
-That time I threw a turd into a tornado 
-Becoming the bad boy of fly tipping 
-The disastrous double date 
-My car airbag addiction 
-The time I tunnelled too far out of prison and ended up in the prison next door 
-The real reason Bigfoot went into hiding 
 
…this book is a delightfully absurd journey into the mind of a comic maverick. 
 
Hilarious, heart-warming and utterly unique, Joe Wilkinson: My Autobiography is the off-the-wall life story of one of our most beloved and unorthodox comedians.
