With Great Pleasure: Arthur Lowe

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

Best known of course for his role as Captain Mainwaring in Dad's Army. Arthur Lowe has had a surprisingly varied acting career, from American musicals and Coronation Street to John Osborne and Shakespeare. His choice of poetry and prose, presented before an invited audience, reflects his private life as well as his life as an actor.
