ON SCREEN AT THE WALKER THEATRE
An exclusive documentary film revealing for the first time the private man behind Britain's greatest comic genius.
Not yet broadcast and produced over four years with full access from Ken's widow Lady Dodd, the film takes an in-depth look into Doddy's private world, exploring the many secrets of his comic talent, revealing never-before-seen home videos, stage performances and extracts from some of the thousands of Ken's diary notebooks which he's asked his wife to burn after his death.
Wrestling with her conscience for quite some time, Lady Dodd finally agrees with entertainment historians, museum curators and many of Ken’s admirers like Harry Hill, Lee Mack, Miriam Margolyes Paul O’Grady, Johnny Vegas, and Sir Ian McKellen to preserve Doddy’s notebooks for posterity.
£16.50 | FRIENDS 10% OFF | 3hrs (includes 2 x intervals) + Q&A
The film will be introduced live by LADY DODD with a post screening Q&A.
