참여 작품

Judi Dench: Our National Treasure
Self
A profile of the actress from a strict Quaker upbringing in Yorkshire, through her staunch determination to make it as a thespian. There's also a look at her work in TV favourites such as A Fine Romance and As Time Goes By, where Judi's performances won her four BAFTA awards, and her tenure in the James Bond franchise.
Victoria Wood: The Secret List
Himself
Victoria Wood's Secret List features more than 20 sketches from the comedian's vast array of work. The sketches - chosen by Victoria herself - were discovered on a list in one of her personal notebooks after her untimely death. With a career spanning more than 40 years and crossing every possible genre, Victoria has a back catalogue that's bulging with sublime comedy moments, and Victoria Wood's Secret List promises viewers a unique opportunity to see the very best bits of Victoria's work that she loved the most.
Barrymore: The Body in the Pool
A film following the events of March 2001 when 31-year-old Stuart Lubbock was found dead in the pool at TV presenter, Micheal Barrymore's, home in Roydon, Essex.
How The Young Ones Changed Comedy
This documentary explores the legacy of one of the most notorious British sitcoms of all time. Launching alternative comedy onto our screens, the show made household names of its performers and writers and proved to be a huge influence, despite the BBC reportedly being baffled by what they'd commissioned back in 1982. Never before had a flagship comedy show contained so much violence, depravity and anarchy - it was a shot across the bow to mainstream comedians that things would never be the same again.
Terry Pratchett: Back in Black
Himself (archive footage) (uncredited)
A poignant and humorous film telling the life story of the hugely popular author of the discworld series of books, in his own words.
This Life +10
Interviewer
A decade on, This Life's Egg, Milly, Warren, Anna and Miles meet again at Ferdy's funeral. Egg has become a successful writer, Milly a full-time mum and Anna is still a lawyer, while Warren and Miles have pursued 'business' careers.

The reunion takes place in Miles' Mansion over a long weekend and the five old friends discover each other again.
