Kristina (502 KP) rated Every Day in Books

Book Rating
"Soft"3
The entire idea of what David has written about is very intruiging, I was riddled with questions and predictions, most of which went unanswered. While I remained interested in the topic, the story itself was, for me, slow and lacking. There were moments when my interest was re-piqued, but most of the time I waited and waited for something more. I finished the book because I wanted to know the answers to my questions, unaware there was a second installment in the series. I might possibly continue with this story, but sometime in the much later future.

Emergency questions (0 more)
Quality depends on the guests (0 more)
Superb silliness but at times insightful
RHLSTP is like an unregulated Jonathan Ross, if Jonathan Ross spent a lot less time on researching his guests and made fumbling attempts to ask them about their work before resorting to emergency questions, all to hilarious consequences.
The guests range from big name stars from off of the telly (Steve Coogan, Stephen Fry) to young up and coming comedians (John Robins, Nish Kumar).
All guests get the same cheeky tone from Herring and there is no sycophancy present at all.


Herring's repertoire of emergency questions (have you ever seen a big-foot, would you rather have a hand made of ham or an armpit that dispensed sun cream) help keep a consistent tone and sometimes lead to surprising answers (eg when asked "What is it like being Stephen Fry?" the answer led to an admission of attempted suicide).
