Desert Island Discs Revisited

Singers

Michael Crawford

Duration: 45 minutes

First broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 ExtraLatest broadcast: on BBC Radio 4 Extra

From Gene Kelly to Bach. Actor, comedian and singer Michael Crawford shares his castaway choices with Sue Lawley.

Renowned for his attention to detail, Michael has always performed his own stunts - whether roller-skating under moving lorries in BBC TV's Some Mothers Do Have 'Em, or walking the tightrope in the stage musical Barnum.

A consummate professional, he admits to escaping from his hospital bed, where he was recovering from exhaustion, so the show could go on!

First broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in December 1999. Show less
