John Wells
A series about how leading figures in the creative arts approach their work.
Schoolmaster, actor, novelist, reviewer, essayist, translator, play-wright ... JOHN WELLS has played many parts in his career, but perhaps none has been as popular as his portrayal of Denis Thatcher , first in Private Eye as co-author of the ' Dear Bill' letters, and now on stage in Anyone for Denis?
Tonight's film goes behind the scenes at the Whitehall Theatre as John Wells gradually transforms himself into the Prime Minister's husband.
