This week: Fallen Idols
Showbusiness has a uniquely cruel side to it: you can be right at the top one moment and right down the next. Jeremy James , with a Man Alive team, talks to three top people who have fallen. Comedian BILL MAYNARD was forced to sell hearth and home when his career collapsed ten years ago. He's made it again now, but it isnt so easy far film star ANTHONY STEEL, heart-flhrob of the 50s.
With 60 films behind him, he suddenly found himself with a broken marriage to Anita Ekberg and a broken contract with the Rank Organisation.
And singer KATHY KIRBY , the cheerful girl next door-the one-time television idol of millions. Her career disintegrated when her personal manager and friend Bert Ambrose died suddenly. On a one-night stand at the Crystal Rooms, Hereford, she sings ' Maybe This Time.' And there are many who hope and believe she can get to the top again.
