Behind the Scenes with Colin Edmonds
TV & Film
Freddie Starr, Des O'Connor tonight, John Sullivan & horror films – the scriptwriting success story of Alan Wightman.
This time we go Behind The Scenes with incredibly prolific and hugely versatile scriptwriter Alan Wightman, who chats about his long and non-stop career in movies and light entertainment. Alan shares memories of his friend John Sullivan (Only Fools & Horses), his time penning gags for top turns Jimmy Tarbuck, Jeff Stevenson and Des O’Connor, plus landing the job of producing the highest rating LE show on BBC Television Wales. Then there’s the matter of ghost-writing Freddie Starr’s autobiography! Alan also gives an eyewitness account of standing in the wings of Her Majesty’s Theatre on the night Tommy Cooper died on live TV.
