Tuesday 6 May - Channel 4 - 10:00pm.
This comes from the same guy who did the Heather Mills and Michael Barrymore documentaries which have been on tv over the last 2 weeks.
Worth a watch I reckon.

I'm going to watch it. Jacques Peretti has a background in music journalism, he made a great documentary about Kurt Cobain last year. The Heather Mills one was OK and not too tacky, but with little new information. I suspect the Amy one will be similar but definitely worth seeing.

I sure hope someone will put this online.

Can't wait to watch this next Tuesday:

Is Amy on self-destruct?
Amy Winehouse: What Really Happened, showing May 6th on Channel 4 at 10:00pm
Amy Winehouse (pictured) is one of the most talented singers of her generation and winner of five Grammies. Yet at the very peak of her career, is her lifestyle pushing her down a frightening path?

Journalist Jacques Peretti probes into Amy's fascinating world. What is it that makes her such an extraordinary talent, and conversely, why is she compelled to self-destruction at all? Is she a victim of our culture and appetite for celebrity meltdown?

Jacques explores Amy's catalogue of broken hearts, from her parent's divorce to her overwhelming consuming love affairs, including her relationship with husband Blake Civil-Fielder (pictured), currently in jail awaiting charges for GBH and perverting the course of justice.

With interviews from friends and family, Jacques explores how Amy absorbs every emotion she has lived through, channelling it into her music. It may produce multi-million selling songs, but will hanging onto the past really help Amy Winehouse?

Any chance you could Youtube this, Jayne?

[Jayne]

I might try and see about somewhere else to host it as you tube might suspend my account again, does anyone know where else you can upload videos that not so censored?

[sarahbol]

http://www.veoh.com/ perhaps. I'm not that familiar with it but I think Tam likes it lol.

Or if you would put it on Youtube, you could use no tags and not mention the name of the programme in the title or description, so they won't find it.

...or at least give us a report...please and thank you.

[PabloD]

But is she getting interviewed by them? or is it just one of those tell-all documentaries where the artist doesn't really appear more than in a couple of photos?

[ILLEGALL]

they talk to people close to the person in question
in the advert there is people ive never even seen before aswell as familiar faces such as sylvia young
one lady says she asked amy "is vodka your favourite drink"
she says amy said "no, its my day time drink"
but they are not just random people saying what they think, they are "in he loop" so to speak

[Moody's Mood]
