Kevin Pilley takes a cane-twirling, splay-footed stroll through Charlie Chaplin’s former Switzerland home, which has become a museum to the great man.

Charlie Chaplin’s last home in Switzerland will be turned into a permanent place of pilgrimage for fans of the actor who immortalised the “Little Tramp”, one of his sons said today.

Film fans will be able to view unreleased footage of Charlie Chaplin mimicking Adolf Hitler for his film The Great Dictator later this month.
