Daydreaming England was about to be rudely awakened as punk emerged from the London underground scene. A nation dropped its dinner in its lap when the Sex Pistols swore on prime time television. Punk had finally found its enemy- the establishment. In Manchester, the Buzzcocks' self-released Spiral Scratch was a clarion call for a do-it-yourself generation, while the Clash's White Riot tour took punk's message across Britain. Moral outrage followed the Pistols around the country, effectively outlawing punk - but there was one refuge for the music. Nestled in the wasteland of 70s Covent Garden, the Roxy was punk's cathedral. Punk interlopers the Jam raised the bar for lyricism, challenging punk's London elite. Punk also began to extend its three-chord vocabulary through an alliance with reggae, memorably captured by the Clash on White Man in Hammersmith Palais. With their second single, God Save the Queen, the Pistols scored a direct hit at the establishment in summer '77, but a disastrous PR stunt on a Thames barge would mark a turning point. The darker underbelly of the summer of '77 would see race riots in Lewisham. This street turbulence was the backdrop for a rawer, working class sound. If the Pistols and the Clash had been the theory, a second wave led by Sham 69 was the reality. By '78 punk was becoming a costume - the very pop orthodoxy it had originally sought to destroy. For many punk ended when the Pistols split, beset by internal problems, following an abortive tour of the USA in January '78. Those practitioners who would go on to enjoy sustained success sought to modify their sound to survive, such as Siouxsie Sioux. Punk had shown what it was against, now it was time to show what it was for in the post-punk era. With John Lydon, Mick Jones, Siouxsie Sioux and Paul Weller.

Episode 3 of 3 DURATION: 1 HOUR Punk had shown what it was against - now what was it for? In the wake of the Pistols' demise a new generation of musicians would re-imagine the world they lived in through the music they made. Freed up by punk's DIY ethos, a kaleidoscope of musical influences broke three chord conformity. Public Image Limited allowed Johnny Rotten to become John Lydon the artist. In Manchester, Magazine would be first to record in the wake of the Pistols' split, Mark E Smith made street poetry while Ian Curtis turned punk's external rage into an existential drama. A raft of left-wing art school intellectuals like Gang of Four and Wire imbued post-punk with a sense of radical politics and conceptualism while the Pop Group infused funk with anti-capitalist sentiment in the early days of Thatcher. Flirting with fascism and violence, the working class Oi! movement tried to drag punk from the Kings Road into the heart of the East End whilst Anarcho punks Crass embarked on the most radical vision of any. In a time beset by dread and tension perhaps the biggest paranoia was Mutually Assured Destruction essayed perfectly by Young Marble Giants' Final Day. Released in the height of Thatcherism, Ghost Town by The Specials marked a parting of the post-punk waves. Some would remain avowedly uncommercial whilst others would explore pop as a new avenue in the new decade. The song that perhaps summed up post-punk's journey was Orange Juice's Rip It Up and Start Again. With John Lydon, Howard Devoto, Mark E Smith, Peter Hook, Jerry Dammers, The Raincoats, Wire, Jah Wobble, Mark Stewart, Edwyn Collins, Young Marble Giants and many more

the summer of 2012, Hard Rock Calling once again lived up to its reputation as the premier outdoor rock festival of the summer. Hard Rock Calling takes place annually in London's Hyde Park, and this year's headliners were Bruce Springsteen, Paul Simon, and Soundgarden. There were many other great musicians on the bill; Christina Perri, John Fogerty, Tom Morello, Lady Antebellum, Allison Krauss, Iggy & the Stooges, and the Punch Brothers. In true Hard Rock Calling fashion, there was a visit from a special guest; the one and only Paul McCartney. Sir Paul came out to join The Boss, Bruce Springsteen, for his encore of two legendary Beatles songs, "I Saw Her Standing There" and "Twist & Shout". It was all over the news that during the performance of "Twist & Shout" the speakers were turned off because the show went past the London curfew of 10:30pm. However, we have some great news for all of you diehard fans out there: we kept the cameras rolling, and the audio recording, and we're the only ones who can bring you the entire "Twist & Shout" performance in its entirety. Enjoy! BOOTLEG'EM ALL!!!& MAKE HISTORY!

Episode 1: How The West Was Won (first aired 27 January 2012) 60 mins British bands' attempts to find success in the USA, beginning in the 1960s, the decade in which acts including the Beatles, the Hollies, Herman's Hermits and the Animals found fame on both sides of the Atlantic. The documentary examines how British musicians and American audiences became fascinated by each other's cultures, and features contributions by Paul McCartney, Graham Nash, Peter Noone, Eric Burdon, Donovan and Mickey Dolenz.

Episode 2: Stairway To Heaven (first aired 3 February 2012) 60 mins How British bands thrived amid the culture of excess that began to dominate rock music in the 1970s. The programme examines how Cream broke into the American market during the late 1960s, before Led Zeppelin achieved even greater success at the start of the 1970s, fundamentally altering the sound of rock as a result. The programme also recalls the 1974 California Jam, where acts including Black Sabbath, Deep Purple and Emerson, Lake & Palmer played to an estimated crowd of one million people, and charts the rise of arena rock concerts during the decade. With contributions by Jimmy Page, Jack Bruce, Paul McCartney, Tony Iommi, John Lord, Bill Bruford, Rick Wakeman and Jeff Lynne.

Episode 3: We're The Kids In America (first aired 10 February 2012) 60 mins The Sex Pistols' American tour of 1978 might not have been a commercial success but it would set the tone and attitude for a new wave of British rock in the USA, while Duran Duran would lead a new pop invasion in the 80s.

Another documentary on the dutch punkscene. It tells the story from the start, back in january 1977 when the Sex Pistols toured Holland. Young bands moved on to punk for the fun of playing and a good time. You see some Speedtwins & Ivy Green, but mostly centres on Panic from Amsterdam Then the docu goes forth to 1979/1980 when the economy falls on it's butt, unemployment kicks in. The punks start to pick up their own instruments and start bands. Most never played a note, but used music to ventilate their frustrations & anger. The scene gets harder, the music gets faster. And on the other side a more political stream like The Ex. Also some footages on squatting and riots during the day the new queen gets throned Also a short centre piece of/by Peter Pontiac, the famous cartoon artist who made some cover art, and of course his famous cartoons that got included in several punkzines at that time
