John Dunn presents a new four-part series on William Schwenk Gilbert and Arthur Seymour Sullivan, the great but turbulent theatrical partnership responsible for 14 operettas, including The Mikado, HMS Pinafore and The Pirates of Penzance.

The series begins in 1891, when the duo were at the peak of their powers and yet vowed never to work together again.
