I saw it last night on BBC4 repeat. It was resoundingly ok. It really should have been a much more in depth 2 or 3 programme documentary like they did with Jazz Brittania. There were glaring exceptions but I suppose it depends on how they were defining prog. I enjoyed the footage but it wasn't really saying anything new, although I was pleased that Steve Howe seemed less of a grumpy bugger than I'd thought. I was also a bit peeved they stopped at the predictable 'punk vs prog' period. Yeah, yeah.... zzzzz

I would really have liked them to have gone beyond that generic cut off point to the present day cos there's much more recent stuff they could have covered. Oh well.

I did enjoy the companion Prog at The BBC show. It's not often you get to see girls in hot pants dancing badly to Atomic Rooster and Jethro Tull in a Top of the Pops studio!
