Alan Alda is one of the most recognisable actors from the heyday of '70s American sitcom – playing 'Hawkeye' Pierce in M*A*S*H, a sitcom about a military hospital during the Korean War, which ran for 11 seasons.
In this interview, he discusses being raised in extremely close quarters to a burlesque show, the anti-war sensibility behind M*A*S*H and having his childhood pet stuffed after death.
