Bobby Darin
Set 1Sir Tim Rice presents the story of actor and musician Bobby Darin, who died 35 years ago on 20 December, 1973.

A multi-talented, versatile performer and composer, Bobby Darin bestrode the music scene from rock 'n' roll, folk and country to big band and the America Popular Songbook.

Never has a performer made so many successful career turns in such a short, brilliant career. Darin was even seen as a serious rival to Frank Sinatra for a short time.

The series features many brand new interviews with a host of personalities, including Steve Blauner (Bobby Darin’s manager of many years), Jimmy Scalia (the official Bobby Darin archivist) and Teri Koenig ( Darin’s sister-in-law and "valet" ).
