Actor Timothy West gives a loving account of his 60-year marriage to actress Prunella Scales – one of the most celebrated marriages in the history of British entertainment.
After first meeting over sixty years ago while filming a costume drama for the BBC, Prunella Scales and Timothy West have enjoyed a partnership like no other; from appearing together in countless productions on stage and the hit 1960s sitcom Marriage Lines, they have chalked up an almost endless list of professional triumphs. They have also brought up their two sons, Samuel and Joseph, and Tim’s daughter by his first marriage, Juliet.
In conversation with James Hogg, Timothy will trace their lives – professionally and personally – and cover the highs and lows of caring for Pru since her dementia diagnosis twenty years ago.
