Roger Wilmut (born 1942 in Stratford Upon Avon, Warwickshire) is a British writer and compiler of books on British comedy. Wilmut attended Warwick School, and began his 'day job' as studio technician for the BBC on leaving school in 1961. Wilmut claims to have drifted into a career as a writer "by accident".〔 〕 Wilmut's books include ''The Goon Show Companion'', ''Tony Hancock: Artiste'', ''From Fringe to Flying Circus'' (a history of Oxbridge comedy in the sixties and seventies) and ''Didn't You Kill My Mother-in-law'' (a history of the 1980s alternative Comedy movement in the UK). ==Early life== Wilmut was born in Stratford Upon Avon, Warwickshire in 1942. His parents moved there when they were married in 1940 and his father, who had been teaching in Caterham, Surrey, got a post at King Edward VI School in Stratford. Wilmut's mother was a keen theatregoer, and as a result he saw many of the Shakespeare productions at the Royal Shakespeare Theatre from the late 1950s to about the early 1970s. Wilmut attended Warwick School, and began his 'day job' as studio technician for the BBC on leaving school in 1961. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roger Wilmut」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
