Famous for 15 Minutes

BBC Radio 4
on BBC Radio 4 FM

'In the future everyone will be famous for 15 minutes.'
(Andy Warhol, 1968). In the first of six programmes, Jenni Mills talks to people who were famous for 15 minutes and discovers what happened after.
Ten years ago you could hardly open a tabloid newspaper without seeing some mention of John Knight - 'Superdad'. He lived on Bodmin Moor and spent his time jogging between his two wives and 26 children.
