Timothy West CBE Pru & Me

With major roles at the RSC, The National Theatre, and on TV and film, Timothy West is one of our leading and most recognised actors. He has been married to Prunella Scales for 60 years and they are an enduring double act that has delighted us most recently with their Great Canal Journeys, which has included Pru’s struggle with dementia. He’ll be sharing the course of their lives, from the years before they met - treading the boards in the 50s - to their secret courting, marriage and establishing themselves at the heart of theatre, television and film in some of the nation’s favourite shows, from Fawlty Towers to Brass.
