"Queens of British Pop" on BBC1

[inbhirnis]

I hope this show makes it to BBC America one of these days. As well as hearing some great performances from some major icons, it sounds as if the interviews surrounding each of them could be quite interesting, given the rather eclectic bunch of people taking part. Wish Kate Bush would agree to take part in an interview - she's did some groundbreaking stuff in her career.

Unfortunately, you don't get to see clips if you're outside the UK, dammit.

Oooh - great! Thanks for posting that.

Marc Almond looks a little 'pinched' - but I do remember he had a serious car/bike accident a few years ago, so maybe it's related to that.

Good to see Shirley "Terminatrix" Manson, talking about ginger discrimination in school - reminds me of that South Park episode.. (http://www.southparkstudios.com/clips/155070)

Another take on being a 'Gingur'

Where's Elton?

More on-topic, this does sound like a great show.

I meant to frickin record it and forgot. I'm assuming it has already been on BBC4 given that there seems to be YouTube clips from part 2 and it was part 1 that aired last night!

Thank heavens for YouTube - I certainly enjoyed seeing the clip that stockykub1973 posted..

On a side note, are you going to be home Memorial Day weekend?

As far as I know at this point, yes....
