2/4. Petula Clark profiles the legendary French chanteuse
Edith Piaf (born Edith Giovanna Gassion), who died of cancer in 1963, aged 47, following a career marked by dramatically soaring performances, among them La Vie en Rose and, perhaps most iconically, Non, Je Ne Regrette Rien. The series features rare archive material and continues with a look at her stormy love life and her first million seller, L'Accordéoniste.
