Shortly after, fans flocked to the online stores in the hopes of getting their hands on a copy. So many at once, in fact, that they momentarily crashed the Amazon page which Chris said was “amazing.”

WHSmith ran out of their allocation for the book which was later resolved when more signed copies were added to the website. Signed copies were also made available from Waterstones.

In response, the comedian tweeted: “There will be more signed copies on there soon... I can feel my wrist hurting already! (FROM THE SIGNING...) You're all amazing! Thanks so much.”
