hehehe, I'd almost forgotten I owned this one... Sparrow Books 1981:  BLURB:
Here one minute... there the next, from the Napoleonic Wars to Sherwood Forest, from Agamemnon's Greece to the deck of the doomed Titanic, a band of greedy dwarves race through history. They are immortal, yet human, timeless but always late, capaple of inter-cosmic travel yet unable to tie their own shoelaces. Stealing in one century and hiding out in another, they are the most extraordinary gang ever let loose on this or any other universe.
They are the Time Bandits.
David Warner was brilliant in the film! |

Just watched it again at the weekend. I still laugh my socks off when Robin interviews the bandits. And the scene with Napoleon and the leetle puppets is a killer.

'Goodbye! Goodbye! Cheerio! Goodbye!' [pause] 'What awful people!' - Robin Hood's farewell to Kevin and the Time Bandits. One of my favourite films of all time, and those lines, and the manner in which John Cleese delivers them always makes my brother laugh - and there have been times when we've said goodbye to people where we've added the last part.  It always makes me sad watching it, that David Rappaport [Randall] committed suicide in 1990, after a long period of depression. Terry Gilliam had planned a sequel, but this was never made, due to Rappaport's death, and Jack Purvis [Wally], being left quadraplegic after a car accident. |
