Queen at the BBC

A trip through the archives that serves up an hour of killer Queen material, featuring some of the band's greatest musical moments ever delivered to our screens. The legendary band's huge international status and punishing touring schedules meant that over the years they made surprisingly few appearances on programmes like Top of the Pops, and tragically for their fans, several of those performances were either lost or never recorded. This collection brings together the very best of what's survived from one of the most enduring and best-loved acts in British rock, featuring perhaps the most charismatic and best-loved frontman of all time. Amongst the gems are moments from the band's celebrated 1975 concert at London's Hammersmith Odeon and highlights from their trips to the prestigious Montreux Pop Festival in the 1980s - an event that would attract the cream of the world's music acts every year. Songs featured take us from the band's first ever UK hit, Seven Seas of Rhye, through to These Are The Days of Our Lives, Queen's last hit before Freddie's untimely death, as well as all the biggest hits, including the iconic Bohemian Rhapsody, frequently voted the nation's favourite ever song.

Quadrophenia

2 hr 0 mins
Director Franc Roddam has assembled an array of young British acting talents who bring back London's 1960s Mods and Rockers. Set against the soundtrack of The Who's high-concept album "Quadrophenia", Phil Daniels plays working-class Jimmy Cooper, a drug-using Mod who hates his job and is taken the wrong way by his parents. But by night, he comes alive with the all-nighters, his amphetamine pills, and his scooter-riding friends; he's always on a high, and life cannot get any better. Then comes the Brighton Scooter Run, where the Mods and the Rockers converge, ending in the Battle of the Cults on Brighton Beach. What goes up must come down, and with Jimmy's come-down, his life is turned around, and so begins his downward spiral into paranoia, isolation, and the four-faceted mindset: Quadrophenia. With its extremely realistic language, violent overtones, and classic 1960s soundtrack, this illness is bound to be contagious. Come along for the ride.
