Noel Coward Interviews 1960-1972

Synopsis
The BBC Archive Voices series features radio and television interviews with some of the key figures from the fields of entertainment, sport, politics and literature - many of which haven’t been heard since their original transmission. In interviews ranging from 1960 to 1972, Noël Coward talks about being a legend, whether he is a cynical writer, his early days in acting, and his early reputation for upsetting fellow actors on stage. He also discusses acting with Laurence Olivier, his affection for the Navy, his film-making, his knighthood, and writing ‘Private Lives’ for his friend Gertrude Lawrence.

Due to the age and nature of this archive material, the sound quality may vary.
