I really liked the instrumental version of Cassonova In Hell.

Enjoyed it, but it was bizarrely uneven; why no "Very", with its iconic imagery, and then the strange focus on New York city boy? I think the South Bank Show documentary from the early 90s was put together far better.

Love comes quickly, but is a catastrophe and a bourgeois construct etc.

Wished they'd talked more (or even a little bit) about Fundamental.They had Trevor Horn there for heavens sake. Otherwise a pretty decent documentary and the "Almost as good as Erasure" comment made me lol.

I think it was PSB from an American's point of view.

Enjoyed it though - Robbie was very complimentary.

Very enjoyable, but way too much left out. I look forward to the DVD, as this felt like half a documentary.

Great stuff.

Nice to see Chris opening up a little and the guests were a good mix.

The full version should be excellent.

Was New York city boy big in America then?

I didn't understand why it was so American focused either. :shock: Leaving "Very" out was bizarre.
