The Last Wave

Concluding the series, Michael Caine contrasts the downbeat spy he created in The Ipcress File with the fantasy world of James Bond; John Osborne recalls the huge success of Tom Jones, for which he wrote the screenplay; Sir John Gielgud remembers the rigours of filming The Charge of the Light Brigade; the Carry Ons carry on; and James Fox and Mick Jagger revisit the decadence of Performance. With Vanessa Redgrave, Dirk Bogarde, Charles Wood, Nicolas Roeg, and Donald Cammell.
