Three Days and Three Minutes with Larry archive

A nostalgic and intimate insight into Generation Game host Larry Grayson's last public appearance. Slack-Alice and Everard are once more brought to life in this behind the scenes peek at TV presenter Larry Grayson. Said to be 'waiting for the right woman to come along' in a time when presenters could not be openly gay, the Generation Game host's personal life has had a muted public attention. Three Days and Three Minutes with Larry takes the audience backstage at his last performance in 1994 at the Royal Variety Show, when the camp comedian befriended a spiritual healer to help him get his three minute act together. The team behind Cissie and Ada: An Hysterical Rectomy have been researching the Grayson family archives to bring audiences closer to the beloved Generation Game host and relive some of his best loved material and characters.
