The Last Laugh

The book offers a fascinating glimpse into British Variety during the 1950s through the lens of Steve Walker, a professional comedy magician. After his passing, over 700 jokes and gags he collected from 1953 to 1963 were discovered, showcasing timeless humor that remains relevant today. Sean Taylor, a friend and colleague, not only deciphers these jokes but also shares anecdotes about Steve and includes a full transcript of his magic act. This collection serves as a valuable resource for entertainers and anyone looking to enhance their speeches or presentations.
