Product Details

A broadcasting legend and one of the most recognisable faces on British television, Alan Whicker worked his own brand of quietly incisive journalism for over fifty years. A consummate interviewer with a famously affable, urbane style, his popular, award-winning documentaries continue to be a significant influence to this day. This ongoing series of releases will showcase every programme that Whicker made for ITV, in chronological order. Subjects of his scrutiny in this volume first broadcast in 1969 include cryogenics, media stardom, swinging singles, wage slavery, old age and more as well as an unforgettable encounter with Haitian dictator Papa Doc Duvalier.
