Sex Pistols/Grundy! Sky Arts Urban Myths Episode 7
Sky
Arts new series Urban Myths will feature an episode with a 'new' take
on the Sex Pistols v Bill Grundy encounter! The series has already run
into trouble over a Michael Jackson episode which has been pulled prior
to transmission.
"The Sex Pistols’ infamous 1976 appearance on the
early evening Bill Grundy show, when they outraged a nation with their
four-letter tirade, heralded the arrival of punk rock. This comedy
takes a wry look at the stories surrounding the appearance, from Johnny
Rotten answering viewers’ complaints to Freddie Mercury’s role in
giving the Sex Pistols notoriety.
Casting for this Urban Myth will be drawn from the National Youth
Theatre, with the film the first product of this unique Sky Arts
partnership.
From Sacha Baron Cohen’s Spelthorne Community Television. Written by
Simon Nye. Director and cast TBA." [thanks Carlos & Scotty
