Comedy legend Brian Conley journeys through the fantastic world of television with some of our favourite celebrities who have chosen the TV moments that have shaped their lives.

Broadcaster Kirsty Wark joins Brian on the sofa to talk about the TV that shaped her. We start off by journeying back to the 60s to watch a clip of The Man from U.N.C.L.E, a spy drama that Kirsty used to act out in the park. We discover that Kirsty's passion for journalism was there from a very early age when we revisit a news story that shook the world. Brian surprises Kirsty with a clip of satirical sitcom Yes Minister, before we move on to real-life politics by looking back at, arguably, her most famous interview - with Margaret Thatcher.

Kirsty talks about the people who inspired her, including the late, great Robin Day, one of our most cherished broadcasters. Throughout we find out about the television that made Kirsty the person she is today.
