Further details
One-time variety star Count Arthur Strong, now sole proprietor and owner of Doncaster's Academy of Performance, is a show business legend, raconteur and lecturer extraordinaire.
Each episode in series four features a confused and muddled "day in the life" of Arthur. From staging X Factor-style auditions in the back room of The Shoulder of Mutton, to crafting a detective novel and taking over the operations at Gerry's Cafe, there is never a dull moment.
An expert in everything from the world of entertainment to the craft of cookery, everyday life with Arthur is an enlightening experience.
