Screen legend, the late, Peter Ustinov displays his celebrated wit and humour in this 1988 ITV special. Ustinov has long been acknowledged the "King of the Raconteurs" - his ability to hold an audience spellbound with humorous anecdotes honed to perfection over the years. His career spanned film (he received an Oscars for his performances in 'Spartacus' and 'Topkapi'), theatre, books (his acclaimed autobiography, 'Dear Me', was a bestseller) and he was the favoured guest of many a chat show host, though most people still recognise him as Hercule Poirot. It is his charm and humour, however, that he is best remembered for and 'An Audience With Peter Ustinov' showcases this wonderfully, bringing many people to consider this to be the best of the top-rated and long-running 'An Audience With' series. This special will appeal to anyone who likes stand-up comedy performances, humorous anecdotes, and archive television fans.
