Description

Interview with actor Michael York, before the royal premier in London of The Last of the Musketeers in which he stars. The film featured the final appearance of comedian Roy Kinnear but his widow, Carmel Kinnear, is boycotting the event as it would be too distressing to watch the movie that cost her husband his life after he died falling off a horse during filming. York says he understands her decision but both he and his colleagues felt it was important to complete the film as a lasting tribute to Kinnear. Male interviewer not identified.
