Peter Sellers was one of the biggest stars of the 1960s and 70s. His career began with characters such as Bluebottle on BBC radio's 'The Goon Show' and he achieved global fame as Inspector Clouseau in the 'Pink Panther' series. What is less well known is that he served in the Royal Air Force Entertainment Units (known as gang shows) for over three years. Now, This work tells of the formation and education of his remarkable talents, as well as a small corner of Second World War history that seems uniquely British. It reveals previously unknown film footage, photos, performances, broadcasts and recordings, from the very beginning of Sellers' career.
