During his lifetime Miles wrote for Punch, where he created the hugely popular Franglais, then went on to write a daily humorous column for The Times, followed by the Independent. He wrote over thirty thousand newspaper columns in his lifetime, as well as contributing to countless magazines and other publications. Turning his back on a promising career in television because he wanted to concentrate on writing, he became a regular broadcaster on radio until his death in 2008.
