- Shake, Rattle & Rock: Vincent Vincent & the Villains The heart-wrenching tale of two bands results in one new and ruthless rock‘n’roll sound rumbling out of east London. We watch as Vincent Vincent and his band of Villains get ready to capture hearts a second time round.
- Enjoy this trip: The Brotherhood of Eternal Love 40 years after LSD was made illegal, we trace how a group of whacked out Californian hippies tried to change the world with acid, but ended up, single- handedly inventing the modern illegal drug market.
