This latest series, narrated by Tamsin Greig, features Peter Sellers, Frankie Howerd, Barry Humphries, Bruce Forsyth, Kenny Everett and Julie Walters.

The Interviews combines frank interviews with hilarious and revealing archive material, offering a rare and fascinating insight into the personal lives of these iconic people.

Senior commissioning editor, Iain Coyle said,  “As a gentleman of a certain age, these documentaries are a unique opportunity to get some perspective, and celebrate, some of the amazing comedic talent that I grew up with. Not only are they fascinating and funny but often very moving too, a real credit to the production team.”

Steve North, general manager for Gold said, “We are incredibly excited to be bringing back The Interviews for a second series. We were delighted in the first series ability to explore the lives of some of our most loved entertainers in such an original manner. Series two promises more of the same and with an incredible line up of Peter Sellers, Barry Humphries, Frankie Howerd, Julie Walters, Bruce Forsyth and Kenny Everett there should be plenty more surprises in store.”
