UNIT was proud to host the special screening of The Peter Sellers Story, Directed by Peter Lydon.

Peter Sellers was arguably the greatest comic actor to emerge out of the UK. This September marks the hundredth anniversary of his birth. To mark it, we screened the BAFTA nominated film The Peter Sellers Story, directed by Peter Lydon.

“This documentary left me pretty well hyperventilating. Dazzlingly directed by Peter Lydon, it worked superbly on many levels – biographical, historical, psychological.” – Victor Lewis Smith, Evening Standard

BAFTA nominated, Royal Television Society nominated, Charleston Int’l Film Festival Gold Award, Chicago International Film Festival Gold Award and WorldFest Houston Silver Award.

Thanks to everyone who joined us for this special screening and Q&A with Director Peter Lydon on Wednesday 24th September. The films are back on BBC iPlayer.
