Yeah, I love Spiral, Wallander, The Killing, saw all these docos too.
I enjoyed them, but I tend to find them frustrating with conflicting views from contributors and stuff that clash with my own memories.
Punk Brittania particularly, but there never will be a more muddled "scene". The thing about Punk is it changed nothing in the mainstream apart from for a couple of years, the music of the Eighties was worse than the music in the seventies before it. A couple of people acknowledged this at the end. I blame Weller for breaking up the Jam and starting Style Council.
New Romantics were hideous, interesting that ***** from Spandau said Ziggy influenced them, so that put me off that doc too.
A lot of Punk bands were **** too, and in many ways PiL were superior to the lot of them. Also leaving out all American influences,and eventual influence was a bit odd, because in the end Iggy (produced by Bowie) and others influenced Punk and the best Punk bands were American afterwards, Dead Kennedy's in particular. You can say that the clues in the title, but we aren't really an island state when it comes to culture any more.
I wonder why they didn't show the Ziggy one first, was it just to rush the PB one out for Jubilee, because it would have made sense to show that one first.
