Lenny Henry has had quite the career. From teen star of talent contest New Faces to his controversial role as the only black performer on The Black and White Minstrel Show, his 80s sketch show Three of a Kind and then his reinvention as a Shakespearean actor and activist for media diversity, Henry takes Alan Yentob through his tumultuous past as detailed in his recent memoir, Who Am I, Again? Packed with glorious archive clips, this is is a fitting tribute to a comedy giant. Ammar Kalia
