China free at last? That day won't occur during my lifetime - and I was 38 this month.

Blur.

That's a very very sweet video.

They copied the Beatles a bit with the album covers in the late 60s but other than that the Stones are essentially a blues band and bear little resemblance to the eclectic Beatles. I would say Mr Lennon was exaggerating a tad, and I think he is possibly slightly drunk on this interview as well - ...

Vintage stuff! Love it.

You tell him, Dicky.

I remember in the 80s me and my brother were kids and my brother thought a bird had crapped on Gorbachev's head.

If piffling side-issues like the Millenium Dome and Formula One advertising were the biggest crises of Blair's first term, does it point somewhat to the puerile nature of that administration? Though I must concede that the current incumbent seems to have taken a further step downwards on that sta...

Oh no, can't fault them and some were better than others. The straight out of local comps rather than middle class stage schools also adds to the authenticity of Grange Hill. Lee McDonald should certainly have gone to stage school after finishing in this though, because his skills were developing...

@FOREVER1999ify Yes I noticed she was a bit funny about lesbians early on - with Sharon (again, the fact that Sharon was a bitch was a more legitimate reason to dislike her).

Hey that policewoman (the one that played Hannah), looks like the woman from the Scottish Widows adverts.

Terrific series, I never knew about it.

That woman who plays Maria's sister is really an Aussie. She was in Prisoner.

06:37 Well that's not ballroom dancing is it? The main thing I remember about Jim is that he never seemed to do any work.

That doctor always played the judge in Prisoner. Date of birth 1970 = 15 years old. That's a mighty long time ago.

Robert Shaw was just fantastic.

09:47 Hardy's got such a warm and kind smile.

Estelle Parsons looks like Harold Lloyd

Poor Jill Dando. Who knew what a tragedy was to come there.

02:10 he looks like the nicer old Labour breed before the Blairite clone arseholes.

She had a big arse.

The presenter of this programme speaks in too casual and cheerful a manner for the extremely serious subject matter.

The ending of that episode was fantastic. It really gets you.

Jagger ain't good looking, boys'n'girls. Not now and not then. But I love the Stones.

Ah David Ogden Stiers narrating. Used to be in M*A*S*H. I didn't recognise his voice. He sounded much snootier when he was doing his M*A*S*H character.

It gives me vertigo just looking at them.

I loved Keith. He was so funny.

@killingracists If she knew the audience only wanted to hear John, why were her songs being all over Double Fantasy?

This is a brilliant series. I'm British but i've always been fascinated by New York City.

Did he just say there is a tradition in Catholisism which is non-judgemental?

Are they going to mention that factory guy who ballet danced out of a 6th floor window and killed himself?

Best Bond theme by a mile. Best ever Shirley Bassey song. Fantastic.

Excrutiating.

Malcolm McClaren. The English Andy Warhol. RIP.

I like Harrison in this doc. He is being more candid than the other two who are trotting out cliches somewhat.

@jp3813 Paul was the most polished songwriter during the Beatles period, but 90-95% of his post-Beatles stuff was rubbish, he seemed to lose somethig from 1970 on which was a bit surprising. I trawled through his 1970s catalogue with Wings and solo the other day. It's painfully bad, (Jet and Comi...

Why not just get three microphones?

George Harrison's teeth always looked too big for his head.

The Please Please Me album was actually quite poor compared to what was to come,

That Mark Chapman has a lot to answer for.

It really seemed, working through the Beatles cannon that McCartney was the more polished musician, but his solo stuff was 90% awful. Lennon's stuff was much better, or at least MORE of it was good than McCartney's.

No offence to Lennon (mostly great), but Number 9 is shite.

I like Uncle John. You ARE funny Uncle John. You and Jack hilarious together.

Vicky Hagen. That's it.
