UPDATE
This competition is now closed.
(subject to terms & conditions)
Bill Bailey Merchandising recognises that the customer is right most of the time and so would like to get inside your minds and hear about what you want with regards to their products (not your life in general as they don’t have the administrative support for that). So let them know what you think via the link below and, for a lucky questionnaire-filler-in selected at random, Bill will see you on tour. Bonne chance.
Oh, and you won’t have to worry about them passing on your details to any other party as they won’t, or we’ll give them a Chinese burn or worse.
(note from Bill: Is the term Chinese burn offensive? What do Chinese people call the spinny round wrist twizzle? The English Unpleasantness?)
This competition is now closed.

Well firstly many thanks for all your kind words about the Remarkable Guide to the Orchestra, which was shown recently on BBC2. The plan is hopefully to put together a few dates in the Autumn and tour the show in the UK. The full-length version of the show will be released on DVD in November, all being well.
Looking forward to the Summer tour and revisiting some old haunts . I made my BBC2 series ‘Is it Bill Bailey?’ in Glasgow and during my time there got to know the city a bit better, and I loved it. Great curries..and friendly natives… And first time for me in Plymouth I think, bigging up the South Coast Massive..or something. So many places, so many tiny individual pots of Milk-Style Dairy Type Liquid…
Just going through my expenses, £4273.99 for Guinea Pig Anti-Flu BioDome, £723.48 for gold-plated Locust Grooming-Tongs, £7,348,003.19 for second Chameleon Home allowance in the Yemen..
I think you’ll find that’s all in order.
See you soon.

The first two dates for Bill’s show at The Palace Theatre, Manchester on 16th and 17th June 2009 are yet to be widely publicised. This will begin happening on 5th May. So, you’ve got between now and then to get in there first and go mad for it. Don’t say we didn’t warn you, our kid.
