Episode 560: The Many Lives of Richard Attenborough: Part Two

August 25, 2003

The conclusion to this two-part profile, which accompanies the Attenborough at 80 season of films this week, looks at Attenborough's career as Britain's most distinguished film director, whose biopic Ghandi won eight Oscars in 1982, including Best Director. It also explores his other lives as chancellor of Sussex University and vice-president of Chelsea FC, and examines the political commitment behind films such as Cry Freedom and 10 Rillington Place.
