A Sockful Of Custard

In the year of his hundredth birthday, Spike Milligan - granddaddy of modern comedy - looks back on his life with an hour and a half of laughs, songs, philosophy, and utter utter silliness. Chris Larner and Jeremy Stockwell - two men with beards – sift through the madness and find only more of it.

A Sockful of Custard is a celebration of the British comic legend Spike Milligan – a man of great sensitivity, insight, and comedic invention, who redefined the landscape of British comedy on stage, radio and TV. Playing not only Spike himself, in all his guises, those who surrounded him, and themselves, Larner and Stockwell break down what made Spike tick, as well as the immense influence he has had on their careers and lives.
