Robert Popper - The Timewaster Letters Compendium

Robert Popper - The Timewaster Letters Compendium
By Robert Popper

Written by Friday Night Dinner creator Popper in the mid 2000s, the Timewaster Letters books were massive bestsellers, and featured the hilarious letters of 'Robin Cooper', in which he shared his madcap ideas, inventions and musings with everyone from the British Halibut Association to the Peanut Council. The letters - and equally funny replies - are brought to life in this Audible exclusive by comedy giants Dawn French, Peter Serafinowicz and Popper.

In addition to the two Timewaster books, The Timewaster Letters Compendium features a host of audio exclusive content, including many of Popper's ridiculously silly prank telephone calls, in which he poses as Robin Cooper. There's also an introduction by Popper himself, a fun, informative conversation between Popper and Peter Serafinowicz all about the history of The Timewaster Letters, and a world exclusive with The Cement Murder Mystery, the first thriller story (and possibly the world's worst thriller story) penned by Robin Cooper himself, and read by Jonathan Keeble.
