You came, you queued, you crimped from time to time…and you queued some more. Then finally, 22 hours after the most dedicated of you had started queuing, it was all over.

Last Sunday saw the London signing to mark the launch of Scribblings of The Madcap Shambleton, Noel Fielding‘s new book of art. What was clear was that Noel and the book’s designer and photographer, Dave Brown, are still much-loved by fans. Noel’s fear that no one would show up was completely unfounded.
What was also clear was how much they appreciate the fans. Noel and Dave spent a knackering 3 hours signing books, bags, t-shirts, body parts…basically anything that was placed in front of them – and chatting to fans. They were genuinely sorry that everyone had to queue for so long and that they weren’t able to spend much time with each person.
It goes without saying that The Velvet Onion were in attendance to cover the event. It was great to meet so many of you there too! Here’s our film of the signing (thanks to Paulyne); as you can see, there were a lot of books to sign. Let us know if you can spot yourself….
P.S. We’ll be posting the photos of the event tomorrow!
excellent video… omg,, i should have put on a bit more make up….lol.. in it twice,… oh well my little claim to fame,.x
nice to see big dan around the boosh boys again
wow! It looks amazing! Gutted i couldnt get there myself. TVO do amazing work keeping us updated and deserve a huge THANK YOU! because without them we wouldnt get to see things like this. I love TVO!
Saw my friends and I about three or four times (: SOO HAPPY!!!! Still so excited that we actually met Noel and Dave, thank you Velvet Onion for the video and thank you to Noel and Dave just for being them. Love them so much!!! <3 xxxxxx
Lovely video. You do such a great job on the Onion. For me (living in Germany) it is the only way to stay updated. The boosh is not very popular around here (for I try to persuade anybody I meet to watch i, annoying everyone I worry) and we don’t have anything like them in Germany. Thanks for giving me Infos and updates and exclusives, for I cannot make it to the UK very often. Looking forward to the next signings and news. Cheers from rainy Cologne and greetings to all the other Boosh Fans around here
Queued up for my wife early in the morning, was a nice atmosphere! My wife got her booked signed by Noel at 5:22 in the video!
Thanks so much for putting this up! This is as close as ive got to being there- mum said I could go then changed her mind at the last minute, I was gutted. Thanks again x
Such an AMAZING day!!! The boiys were so lovely and Noel let us take another picture round at the back entrance because the first one didnt work
I gave him a present and he gave me two kisses 
I love him so much xxx
Can’t believe he thought no-one would come! Looked a great day – got a taste of it through this little video. I am loving that jumper – a total sartorial delight. Fielding the fashionista never disappoints. And the guy just gets more handsome as times goes on – is life fair? And his talent and credibility seems on the up and up. I have to say it – I’m well jel! Not that I watch TOWIE but I have a mate that does and that is her catch phrase! Honest, lol. Can’t wait to finally hold this actual book in my hands. I have nothing against items like the kindle – but to me the actual feel of a book is something special. Hope to get my copy signed at some point!
Thanks TVO! As always a stellar job bringing all things Boosh to those of us far far away.
Lovely video! Thanks for all your hard work putting this together.
American Boosh fans thank you!

Cracking video
I need to remember to smile more when there’s a camera around though :”) It was such an awesome day! Noel and Dave were so lovely, definitely worth the trip down x
It was great to meet you, Kurt. I think you appear in our photos too (just posted today). Glad everyone who was there enjoyed it and those who weren’t have enjoyed seeing watching the film. Aaaah, feel the love!
Yeah Kurt, you made the queuing go so fast! <3
