Review
"It kept me laughing out loud for a good hour or so ... the most brilliant cartoonists, like Pugh, can do my job better than I do it and in a tenth of the space. It's a rare and rather wonderful talent." (Rod Liddle)

Jonny Pugh has been drawing cartoons for twenty years, but it wasn't until his distinctive doodles started appearing in The Times that he became a household name.
