Billybob Dylan
A historic docudrama that tells us the story of Nobel Prize nominee Bob Dylan's father, Festus 'Billybob' Dylan. Festus inherits a wonky old upright saloon piano and teaches himself some rudimentary chords. He then relocates to the sleepy village of Durango, where Bob is born. Billybob's experimentation, during which he converts the old keyboard into an electric one, leaves a traumatic mark in Bob's brain.
The rest, as they say, is history.

What Did the Wu-Tang Clan Do For Us?
Trendily out-of-date historian Adam Hart-Davis presents this factual but entertaining series looking at the civilisation and lifestyles of the Wu-Tang Clan. Inhabiting Staten Island, in present day New York, in the 1990s, the Wu-Tang Clan were well-developed but savage and were responsible for many of the things we take for granted in modern society.
Using a mixture of documentary presentation and dramatic reconstruction, the programme not only looks at the innovations that made the Wu such a vital force for change but also presents scenes from a typical day in the life of the average MC (as members of the Clan were known). We follow Inspectah Deck as he heads out in the morning to buy the cheeba the Wu-Tang prized so highly. Although it's not known what exactly "cheeba" was, Hart-Davis postulates that it was a kind of nutritious food, which would provide the MC with all the fuel he needed for the day, allowing him to spend the rest of his time munching crisps and Revels. The violent lifestyle of the Wu is seen as Inspectah Deck hangs out looking menacing in a primitive shopping mall, before heading to a recording studio to lay down some rhymes in a dialect that is more or less incomprehensible to all but the most educated modern ears.
With Hart-Davis's engaging presentation style and evident enthusiasm for his subject, this show promises to be another huge hit in the mould of his previous adventures, What Did the Romans Do For Us and What Did the Police Academy Series Do For Us?

Excellent
Coan The Albanian
To some it's the greatest story ever told. To others it's a pile of shit. We think it's a diamond in the rough.
A humble carpenter's son, John Coan, sees fishing as his occupational vocation. To him it's not only the work that brings food to the common man, but also the 'catching of souls', a way to create a new spirituality in a soul-free wilderness. Coan succeeds in surrounding himself with a group of twelve disciples, and in his spare time he regularly does a good party trick. For instance, at the Canaan jolly-up, he does his beloved 'water-into-wine' routine, and all the fat middle-aged blokes present are at a loss for words (but not for thirst, mind).
It's his sad fate that he lives in the kingdom of Albania, not the most cheerful place on this mortal coil. The evil King Zog, an atheist if there ever was one, is after our hero. However, Coan is something of an escape artist, the Harry Houdini of his time. So he stays alive and kicking, and even survives an assault by the rebel Enver Hoxha.
One day, after he's provided an enormous amount of fish and bread for the masses, he is visited by someone named Mel Gibson. Gibson proposes to plan a pictorial representation of the life and works of Coan. And then, slyly and surreptitiously, Gibson asks if a certain Judas Iscariot is still in Coan's troupe. Coan shakes his head and says: 'No. This absolute no-hoper was fired long ago'. Inexplicably, Gibson gets weary and sad, and says goodbye.
Coan lives happily ever after, inherits a nice house in Czechia, and goes to live in the then sleepy town of Prague. With hilarious consequences.
It's Oscar material, we think.
