Yikes, almost missed this. Going on the TV Smith and especially the J.C CLark doc, I think these personal profiles will be the thing to watch. These ____ Britannia docs have a tendency to ignore whole swathes of musical history in favour of whoever they can get to interview. Even gettin' some talking head to rattle off a short list which includes the word "Garage" would be better than just ignoring it altogether. Don't even recall the Ramones were mentioned while half the show was on Pub fucking Rock. (Maybe other people are more interested in that than I am). Good to see Doctors of Madness featuring prominently, though. Anyway... Cheers for mentioning the Clark docu: three days later and it would have been off iplayer. Even if the time I saw him a couple of years ago he repeated a whole page of jokes I'd found on an internet site. It must have been literally a print-out of the very same page haha
