The South Bank Show

A look at the history and influence of the Cambridge Footlights - a breeding ground for comedy writers and performers, many of whom are now household names. The programme follows the company from the 1960s, when it really began to flower, to the present Footlights Review at the 2008 Edinburgh Festival. Featuring clips and contributions from a who's who of comedy, from Peter Cook to David Mitchell. Footlights' influence is immeasurable, providing a launching pad for the Goodies, several of the Monty Python team, Stephen Fry, Armstrong and Miller, and a host of others.
