Poontang and Other Poems. Crescent City, Florida: New Athenaeum Press, 1967. Self-published saddle-stapled chapbook of poetry. Five hundred–copy press run. It's the perfect place for men on the prowl and there are so many stewardesses and nurses bunked up there that a guy can't help but score. This story is told from various points of view among four young men who have made their home in this complex- Larry Dolman the ex- cop, Hank Norton the pharmaceutical sales rep, Eddie Miller the pilot, and Don Luchessi, who sells silverware for an old British firm. They work as little as possible, spend hours at the pool, and on martinis. To get to their family nest they had to sneak through the long grass, squeeze under the thorny berry bushes, and leap over five stones that crossed the splashing stream. a b Laws, Roz (28 February 2010). "7 things you never knew about Harry Hill". birminghammail . Retrieved 6 January 2020. The series also featured classic characters from Harry Hill, such as Stouffer the Cat and Harry’s son from his first marriage – ventriloquist doll Garry Hill. Several new characters were also introduced: Burly Caroline, Harry Hill Snr., Speed Camera Boy, a giant, and a musical genius called Evelynne Hussey. The self aware formulaic style continued with each show ending on a song as per Harry Hill.The series ran for six episodes on BBC Two between October and December 1994. For Christmas that year, a VHS containing a 100-minute compilation of the best material from the series, as well as unseen sketches, was released by BBC Video. In March 2017, Hill began presenting 6x30minute episode of Harry Hill's Alien Fun Capsule, which aired on ITV on Thursday nights, 8.30 to 9pm.

Some people mistake first person narratives as the voice of the writer. Those people also usually think that the characters represent ideas the author actually believes and wants to express as his own. Then, there are people who actually know how to read. These people know that characters, even the POV character are not the author and that with good authors, sometimes the discomfort the author is giving you through a POV character is the point. If you don’t get that or don’t believe that, don’t read Willeford, and especially do not read this book.

In a similar style to Harry Hill's TV Burp, the show includes various clips from television and film, often attributed or related somehow to the current guests. The guests also partake in sketches and songs based on or directly spoofing the funny or bizarre items featured. There is a regular slot entitled "Local News Round Up", accompanied by its own theme tune, which involves each of the guests taking turns to read out bizarre headlines from local newspapers. Alan the Alien also appears as a green extra terrestrial's arm, emerging from a box to aid Harry in some way. Weber, Bruce (March 4, 2003).

It lost some steam towards the end, and also I felt like a book that's told from the perspective of four different people needs to make a stronger and more successful effort to differentiate their voices.... BUT, this ruled and I really did enjoy reading it. For some reason it reminded me of Jacqueline Susann, but for/about men instead of women, and set in the seventies.

How are these men flawed? They’re all casual racists and not so casual misogynists. Women are strictly pieces of meat to these guys. A woman’s appeal is strictly physical. How long are her legs? How large are her breasts? How does she smell? And they’ll think nothing of cheating on a wife or girlfriend or simply walking out on them if they think something better has come along. Turned up at a fancy dress party as jelly, custard and cream half an hour before anyone else arrived. I was a trifle early. The prose is dry and funny, with some laugh out loud passages and other sections that become more chilling every time you think about them. Willeford knows people and knows characters and assumes you’re already in on the joke. Horsley, Lee (2005). Twentieth-Century Crime Fiction (Oxford and New York: Oxford University Press).

Is feeding your child a Custard Cream as bad as giving them a gun? Could your coffee morning end in a lawsuit? Should they be taken off our shelves? Who’s to say. Calling the protagonists sociopaths misses the point. A sociopath is exceptional, a clinical case, somebody out of the ordinary. These four aren’t out of the ordinary; they’re representative.
