Narrated by Robert Winston

Bowel surgery seems an extraordinary way to deal with a heart problem, but when the root of the trouble is a genetic abnormality it can make sense. Denzil Duggan had his first heart attack when he was only 27. The problem is how to prevent his second.

For nearly 50 years everybody who was anybody in the British theatre passed before the lens of Angus McBean - Gielgud, Olivier, Thorndike, Coward ... He was known as the photographer who resolutely flattered his sitters.
Tonight, after a ten-year absence. McBean demonstrates his skill with his old friend Sir Ralph Richardson. He discusses for the first time his astonishing surreal pictures of the 30s and 40s.
And photographer Jo Spence faces up to herself and looks beyond the smiling pictures in her own family album.
