Eric Idle's latest book Idle In Provence: A Brief History of Thyme is published later this year and tells the story of Idle's attempt to create a rural idyll in France.
In the book Monty Python co-founder Idle, who was also behind the award-winning musical Spamalot, tells the story of how he bought a ramshackle house in France in 1971 and spent over fifty years doing it up and unwinding there, making friends and trying to learn a new language. It is described at the holy grail of vacation memoirs.
Prime Video has revealed the line-up for the Halloween special of the critically acclaimed UK Original, Last One Laughing.

Ashlee Bentley's blend of quirky humour and brutally honest tales leaves the audience absolutely weeping (mostly with laughter). Ashlee is at the Edinburgh Fringe after winning Magners Share the Craic national search to find the next stand up star. She’s the crowned winner of Show Me The Funny and the Ireland Regional Final of Funny Women. You might also have spotted her on Virgin Media’s The Craic Den Comedy Club show.
A petition has been set up protesting about Amanda Knox's forthcoming Edinburgh Fringe show Cartwheel.
