PICK OF THE DAY

IMAGINE — ANDREW LLOYD WEBBER: MEMORIES, 10.45PM, BBC1

ONE of the most successful composers of all time, Andrew Lloyd Webber has been king of musical theatre for nearly half a century. All over the world, people have flocked to his shows, including Jesus Christ Superstar, Cats, Evita and The Phantom Of The Opera. To mark his 70th birthday, the likeable Andrew has published a candid memoir, Unmasked, chronicling the early part of his life, from his unconventional childhood up to 1988; like his shows, it’s getting rave reviews. Here, Alan Yentob asks him to elaborate, to great effect.
