Walt Disney Biography

[Ware Bears]

on Biography channel (Sky 161, NTL 802) at 9.05pm tonight. I have seen this before and it is very good. If I remember rightly, one of Walt's grandsons is one of the producers or directors.

I missed this post until it was too late, ended up bringing work home with me tonight as we've just had a new computer system installed to help make things easier

I think they do frequent repeats so I'll have to keep an eye out for it.

Watched the last hour of it at 5pm tonight have to say it really was great yet very moving when they described Walt's death. Also when they showed how excited he was for things like E.P.C.O.T and to think it never would actually be created as he wanted it to be made.

I managed to get home in time for the 4.00 showing - brilliant insight into the man and his life - thoroughly enjoyed it although I did have a lump in my throat at the bit where the imagineers described their feelings at his death.

I was left wondering how different "Disney" would be if he lived longer, I think it would of been a lot bigger than it is today.

Very good show about the genius that is Walt Disney.Walt was really dedicated to making Disneyland a success, proving many critics wrong & what was really impressive was how how humble & genuine the guy was.He was really dedicated to his family.The bit at the end of the proramme around Walt's passing was very moving & it is a pity that he wasnt around to see WDW & especially Epcot.Im sure he would be very impressed with DLRP also !!

Walt's vision of Epcot was never built however the town celebration was inspired by his concept.
