Watch 'Joan Bakewell at the BBC' on BBC iPlayer

Joan Bakewell at the BBC is now available to watch on BBC iPlayer.

Join Joan Bakewell as she looks back at her extraordinary career at the BBC and shares some of her most memorable moments, from her early days at Late Night Line-Up to her interactions with cutting-edge artists of the 80s and 90s and Hollywood stars of the stage and screen.

She also talks about her love of conversation and how 'being nosey' made her a better journalist. She reflects on how she fought to maintain her role as a female journalist in the early days of television, the misogyny she faced and how she made it her career's work to keep the arts firmly on the nation's screens. She discusses her role in ethical programming, such as Heart of the Matter and Taboo and how, at 91, she's not ready to stop talking yet.
