Robert Ross Presents - The Unknown Peter Butterworth

Comedy actor Peter Butterworth is undoubtedly best-loved as an integral member of the Carry On team, appearing in sixteen of the film classics as well as an eighteen-month run in the West End, seaside summer season, television situation comedy and Christmas specials. 

But behind the cheeky innuendo and hilarious slapstick, Butterworth had endured a secret war of prison camp hardship, daring escape plans, and unsung bravery. Peter's actor and producer son Tyler, reveals the fascinating truth of his father's war and the road to comedy success.

After the presentation, in conversation with comedy historian Robert Ross, Tyler, star of Mike & Angelo and The Darling Buds of May, will discuss his own career as well as those of his extraordinary parents, Janet Brown and Peter Butterworth.
