Chaplin: A Fresh Look

Panel Discussion

With programmes such as Kevin Brownlow's Unknown Chaplin and Paul Merton's Silent Clowns, TV has introduced Chaplin to a new public and re-affirmed his place in world cinema and the history of comedy.

Chaired by official Chaplin biographer David Robinson with guests Serge Bromberg, co-founder of Lobster Films, champions of restoring archive and silent films, and the BFI's Bryony Dixon who runs the BFI’s Chaplin project.
