Painting the Clouds - a Portrait of Dennis Potter

The Potter at the BBC strand marking the 10th anniversary of his death starts with this feature-length profile. It charts his childhood, time at Oxford, bid for parliament and rise as a constantly controversial TV dramatist who was loved and loathed in equal measure. As well as clips from The Singing Detective, Pennies from Heaven and Blue Remembered Hills, Potter's three children and sister talk on screen for the first time about life with him.
