Synopsis

For more than thirty years, Peter Sallis has played Clegg in Last of the Summer Wine, the world's longest-running sitcom. With his dry, cynical wit and cautious nature, Clegg has been taken to the hearts of the nation. Now the man behind this creation, and the voice of Wallace in Wallace & Gromit, is telling his story.
From his early days in the RAF in the Second World War, through an extraordinary theatrical career which saw him perform alongside the likes of Joan Collins, John Gielgud and Orson Welles, to the fame that came to him late in his career, Peter Sallis has a wonderful, heart-warming story to tell.
