The following article appears at
http://www.edinburgh-festivals.com/news.cfm?id=1130192006:
Television sets its sights on Festival show
BBC Scotland is to screen a special documentary marking 60 years of the Edinburgh Festival.
Rory Bremner, Jonathan Ross, Graham Norton, Bill Patterson, Clive Anderson and Tim Brooke-Taylor are among the big names who will appear on the ArtWorks Scotland special this month.
The BBC2 programme, due to go out on August 13 at 10pm, will relive the origins of the first Edinburgh International Festival and how it was "gatecrashed" by a host of uninvited acts.
The documentary reveals how the Evening News coined the term "the Fringe"
when the same thing happened the following year.
A spokeswoman for the BBC said the programme would also look at how the Fringe became renowned for helping to break big-name stars, including Rowan Atkinson, Stephen Fry and Paul Merton.
It will feature rarely-seen footage of a host of famous performers, including Richard Burton, Marlene Dietrich and Margot Fonteyn.
Also on the bill is footage of circus performer Jim Rose being confronted by Moira Knox, the former Tory councillor famous for condemning the more controversial acts and shows.
