Twelfth Night

Maddie has an interview for her dream job: a tour guide at Shakespeare's Globe. She bursts on to the stage brimming with facts & information, but she needs to know that the theatre is about feelings too. William Shakespeare and his players put on a performance of Twelfth Night to help her understand. The story begins with twins Viola and Sebastian aboard a ship, but they sail into a storm and are shipwrecked. The sea sends them in opposite directions, and they seem destined never to see each other again.

The Life And Death Of Lily Savage. Paul O'Grady

The Life And Death Of Lily Savage

Paul O'Grady became a much-loved fixture of TV and radio. However, for more than 20 years he was a razor-tongued drag queen. Set against the backdrop of Margaret Thatcher's Britain, Clause 28 and the AIDS crisis, this is the story of the star through the prism of his famous creation, Lily Savage. The documentary features Paul's closest friends and family, including his daughter Sharyn Mousley and sister Sheila Rudd, and interviews with Ian McKellen, Julian Clary, Jo Brand, Alan Carr and Graham Norton among others.
