A short film by Australian musician, composer, producer Greg Englert looking into the unknown side of legendary comedian Spike Milligan. Whilst Spike is known world-wide as a comedian, poet, writer and actor it is far less known that he was a talented multi-instrumentalist. This film came about after Greg played at the opening of the Spike Milligan Exhibit at Woy Woy Library, Woy Woy, NSW, Australia, He was surprised to see that Spike's cornet was in the exhibit and over the next 5 years he thought about playing the cornet, much as he had previously played Louis Armstrong's Trumpets in New York. With support from Spike's daughter Laura and Exhibit curator Geoff Potter this became a reality in 2023 and the result was this film.
