Things to do before you die. From his final months, Miles Kington's book of humorous letters to his agent. With Michael Palin.

Things to do before you die, and literary rivalry with an oncologist.

Miles Kington died of cancer in January 2008. Given very little time to live by his doctors, he decided to make cancer "pay its way" - by coming up with increasingly witty and absurd ideas for this book, as suggested to his agent, Gill.

With Michael Palin as Miles and Anna Massey as Gill.
