Documentary telling the story of the day that music rocked the world. Bob Geldof recalls how, after 12 weeks of manic preparation, the big day finally arrived. But would it work, would the punters watch, and more importantly would they part with their cash?

Bob Geldof and his team recall their fear of how the whole thing might fall apart at any minute. Stars from the day itself - Elton John, Queen, Paul McCartney, David Bowie, U2 and a whole host of others - remember walking out to face a crowd of 72,000 and a global audience of billions. And those who watched it at home, including Tony Blair, JK Rowling and Helen Fielding, recall how they didn't miss a minute of this extraordinary event.

  • Did anyone else notice that while Geldof was on the phone with Dubai, Queen was in the middle of "Radio Ga Ga"?

  • This program really highlights how riveting of an experience and event Live Aid was. It had it all; from musical brilliance to hilarity to utter shock and sadness due to the reason of why it was happening in the first place... In a way, it encapsulated the entire decade that was the 1980s.
