DR CHARACTER PRESENTS

POLISH TITLE: DR CHARAKTER PRZEDSTAWIA

A pastiche of old TV programmes explaining science to the general public and an ironic commentary on peculiarities that have pervaded contemporary TV programmes. In his original programme Dr Character, modelled on a person from the opening credits of A Billion in Mind, a game show (which, by the way, was made by Piotr Dumała many years ago), presents extraordinary scientists, original inventors and a selection of curiosities. Jerzy, Płażewski, a doyen of the Polish film critics, gave his voice to the character.
