Burn Hollywood Burn

A four-part TV series exploring the lives and tragic deaths of four Welsh personalities who sought fame and fortune in Hollywood. Starlet Peg Entwistle gained notoriety in 1932 by becoming the first person to commit suicide by jumping from the Hollywood sign. BAFTA-winning actress Rachel (This Sporting Life) Roberts overdosed in 1980. Mervyn K. Griffiths, former butler to silent movie queen Mary Pickford, kept a secret diary on the star and, after her death, hawked it around US publishers. And Richard Marquand, director of Return of the Jedi and Jagged Edge, died of a stroke at the age of 49.
