Wouldn't it be loverly?

Celebration of the world's biggest ever musical, playing tribute not only to Audrey Hepburn and Rex Harrison, but also tracing the evolution of the story from George Bernard Shaw's Pygmalion to Lerner and Loewe's Hollywood blockbuster. This film introduced by Kirsty Wark, also follows rehearsals for the forthcoming production at London's Royal National Theatre, starring Martine McCutcheon, Joanthan Pryce and Dennis Waterman.
