In a special edition of the programme, Mark Lawson talks to director and actor Richard Attenborough about a life in the film industry.

Beginning his film acting career in 1942, in Noel Coward and David Lean's In Which We Serve, Attenborough went on to give celebrated performances as teenage gangster Pinkie in Brighton Rock, as murderer John Christie in 10 Rillington Place, and more recently as the creator of Jurassic Park in Spielberg's dinosaur adventure. But it is as a director that he is perhaps best known. His credits include Gandhi, Cry Freedom, Shadowlands and A Bridge Too Far.

He looks back on his struggles to get films such as Gandhi and Cry Freedom made, discusses the enduring influence of his parents in his life and looks forward to a future project, a film about the life of political thinker Thomas Paine.
