The Real Shirley Bassey
Shirley Bassey's 40-year career has taken her to the highest level of international stardom, but it has been a life full of drama.
Hailing from Cardiff's Tiger Bay, Bassey found her amazing voice got her noticed everywhere, but by 17 it looked as though her career was over before it had properly begun.
Having got her first break in a touring black American music show, she was back in Cardiff, unmarried and pregnant.
Tracing the ups and downs of a remarkable career, this programme shows how Bassey's unconventional approach to life gave her the freedom to follow her own path.
