Do you fancy delighting in the madcap genius of Spike Milligan?

To celebrate to Anglo-Indian-Irish comic's 100th birthday on Monday 16th April, we have 3 copies of the nearly-complete Q box set to give away.

Launching in 1969 as Q5, his off-the-wall sketch show was a hugely influential precursor to the likes of Monty Python's Flying Circus, delighting a generation of fans. Q6 hit BBC Two screens in 1979, with Q7, Q8 and Q9 running until 1980.

A 5-disc DVD box set including every surviving episode of the comedy - the three officially held of 7 episodes from Q5, plus the complete Q6 to 9 - is now available from Simply Media, showcasing the variety and colour of Spike's incredible brand of humour. That's more than 800 minutes of classic British comedy at its most unique.

The Almost Complete Q is available to purchase now.
