The first-ever authorised tell-all documentary about iconic British band James If you ever caught yourself screaming, “Oh, sit down! Sit down! Sit down next to me!” amongst friends and strangers at a rowdy pub as a barman calls final rounds, you know you have had a proper good British night out. This feeling is courtesy of iconic Manchester band James, whose hits have accompanied generations of Brits for almost half a century. In their first-ever authorised documentary, the band chronicles their rise and fall, and rise again, as well as their unique phases, including a brief stint in a cult in the 80s, taking direct advice from psychics, and participating in medical experiments to pay the bills. A treat for fans old and new. (RAFA SALES ROSS)
