When I Get to Heaven

on BBC One London

Bishop Richard Holloway talks to
Michael Bentine
One of the great stereotypes of history is the clown with the broken heart: the tragic figure whose job it is to make people laugh while hiding his own sorrows.
For the former Goon, Michael Bentine , heaven is simply a continuation of earth. A place where his three dead children, Gus, Fusty and Elaine, will be waiting to meet him.
In tonight's programme he tells Richard Holloway of his hopes of heaven and how he has coped with the tragedy in his life.
