Press clippings
An account of Spike Milligan's nervous breakdown "The Other Spike" took the form of a dream or nightmare or a poem written under drugs. Extraordinarily vivid images and incidents but unconnected. A Siamese cat, sapphire-eyed and sinuous. A moron incessantly whistling an idiot tune.
Nancy Banks-Smith, The Guardian, 18th November 1970
