1065 or what?5
I love this play. I acted it out in 1972 and loved it at Eggars Grammar School, Alton ,Hampshire.
Miss Burt I thank you. You were my inspiration1

Great Historical Humour5
The precursor to the Horrible History series, '1066' has long been a classic. There's nothing much I can add to the other reviews - it's a funny history book.

Oh, and to the person who described it as a bad history book and "wildly inaccurate": You, sir, are an idiot.

Noel and Ellen's Inspiration5
Noel happily made reference to "1066 and All That" on the fly-leaf of his own title. Ellen had never heard of it, and wanted to know why anyone-else would have, either. "It's a classic of the British hunour genre", said Noel. "It's the genre's 'Top Book'! Any British humour writer, with leanings towards history would give Harold II's eye-teeth to be compared with it!" And then it turns out to be its 75th anniversary, and everyone wants to parody it (2066 and All That, 1966 and All That, etc) and be compared with it. Too spooky! Don't you think?
