"How to Talk Dirty and Influence People" - the title of the autobiography of Lenny Bruce, the American comedian, whose humour to many people was a sort of pornography but to others was merely a sharp and accurate attack on the hypocrisy of our society. His life has now been transformed into a brilliantly successful musical, currently running in New York, with an outstanding performance by Cliff Gorman - one of The Boys in the Band. In this film the new stage 'Lenny' talks to Clive Barnes, the New York theatre critic, about the character he plays 'Lenny Bruce, hero and martyr.'
"And Miss Carter Wore Pink": an affectionate look back on New Year's Eve at 70-year-old Helen Bradley's paintings of an Edwardian childhood.
