One of the most interesting figures of the Twentieth Century, Sir Christopher Lee is most famous as an actor, but he was also a World War II badass, Nazi Hunter, Heavy Metal Musician and multiple world record holder. Simply put, he lived one hell of a life. Dave reports on the man that played Dracula, Fu Manchu, Sherlock Holmes, Francisco Scaramanga, Rasputin, Saruman in The Lord of The Rings, Count Dooku in Star Wars and dozens upon dozens of other characters.

Record live in London.
