Synopsis

Alma Cogan was one of the brightest stars of music and television during the 1950’s. Her glamour and dresses were legendary, capturing the desire of a nation to escape from the austerity of post-war Britain. She was the most successful female recording star of the decade with hits such as: Dreamboat, Bell Bottom Blues, Twenty Tiny Fingers and I Can’t Tell a Waltz from a Tango. Her personal life was just as glamorous with celebrity gossip columns following her every relationship with stars such as Cary Grant. For the very first time, this programme has uncovered and re-mastered full live performances of Alma at the pinnacle of her career in colour! In addition, there is also a new documentary charting the story of her life, career, famous parties and romances. This is Alma Cogan’s Fabulous Story!
