Comedian, mimic, raconteur are three descriptions that can be applied at any one time to sum up the multi-faceted career of Michael Bentine. To the public he is best known for his zany humour but few people, apart from his family and friends, know him to be a spirit medium.
In tonight's programme MICHAEL BENTINE talks to host Donny MacLeod about the paranormal and a book, The Door Marked Summer, he has written on the subject.
