1. Charlie Chaplin

Thursday 8^th October 2020

Barry Cryer takes a look at the life and career of the one and only Charlie Chaplin. Coming from a background of poverty, Chaplin would rise to stardom during the silent era through his beloved character of "The Tramp" - a role so iconic that it is still immediately recognisable over one hundred years after he first appeared and some fifty years after Chaplin's death.

2. Julia Louis-Dreyfus

Thursday 15^th October 2020

Barry Cryer pays tribute to the decorated comic actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus. Having won more Emmys and Screen Actors Guild Awards than any other performer, she is perhaps best known for her roles in the long-running comedy series Seinfeld and Veep.
