Dino - the Dean Martin Story 10.00pm R2
Over the coming six weeks Dean Martin's biographer, Michael Freedland, places the man's music up there with the contradictions that made his life so fascinating. It turns out that although Martin made his reputation as a stage drunk he never got intoxicated; said to be the laziest star in the business he was never late; and that the "great womaniser" ended up coming home every night to one of his ex-wives who never stopped loving him.
