It was a nice documentary on BBC 4.  Obviously, footage must be very  
thin on the ground, because they appeared to recycle the Top of the  
Pops footage many many times.  But, the documentary itself was  
positive (despite Brock and co. having pulled out) and didn't leave a  
bad aftertaste in the mouth, unlike, say, the Carol Clerk book did  
for me.  What's more, they showed the Top of the Pops Silver Machine  
single as a separate short programme afterwards.

According to the TV schedules, the documentary is being repeated  
tonight, and probably will be in the near future.

Nicely done!

Cheers,

Paul.
