Following the death of satirist Peter Cook in 1995, his wife Lin closed up his house in London with everything inside, like a time capsule, and refused all access to the media. But this year she invited her friend Victor Lewis-Smith and a 大象传媒 crew to make a film about Peter Cook, with unprecedented access to Peter's private recordings, diaries, letters, photographs, videos and much more which were all as he had left them. The resulting documentary The Undiscovered Peter Cook is to be shown on 大象传媒 Four tonight and critic Paul Whitelaw will review it for us.
