Opinion's on the second part? I thought sections of it were disgraceful, just skimmed through the moments after Freddie's death, and the way they let on that it was just Brian and Roger who recorded 'Made In Heaven', with no input from John is shameful on their part.

be fair there is only so much they can fit into 60 minutes. i thought part 2 was excellent especially revealing that manager/feds boyfriend paul prenter being to blame for the move away from rock to pop/disco in the early 80s.

Sorry, i was just ranting about the parts I didn't like, there were some excellent moments, the 'These Are The Day's Of Our Lives' footage is excellent, if not very chilling, as regards how bad Freddie actually was. Also, the point where Roger almost breaks into tears when discussing that he was only 300 yards away from Freddie's house when Freddie passed on was very, very moving.

I've always wondered how much John's input actually was in Made in Heaven. It's such a shame there is (AFAIK) very little information about how the album was created. No in-depth interviews with Brian/Roger/John and/or David Richards. Shame, as I think it would've made a very interesting documentary at the time.

I agree actually, i would love to watch a documentry about 'Made In Heaven', something all the fans would be dying to know i guess.

Some good moments but not half as good as part one. It didn't seem to flow as well as the previous episode. Some touching moments especially from David Richards I thought. It seemed to skim over certain things and it went from 86 to 89 in a heartbeat. Still loved it though.

Yeah, total lack of mention about Flash Gordon, Barcelona, The Cross, Highlander, there are sections that should be mentioned IMHO.

I overall rate Part 1 higher to Part 2 due to the more info that was given.
In reguards to what was present in Part 2, I found the infomation giving about the Hot Space sessions very intresting and I had a hard time trying to watch the Days of our Lives footage in colour. I agree with another person on here who mentioned areas such as Flash Gordon, The Cross, The Miricle needing more info. That said, from what I hear, these docos will be released on dvd in its extended glory.

Great documentary! Thanks for sharing!
Very interesting, and at one point, very sad, they show us the hard reality of the illness.
Anyway is good to see some bits of footage in great quality, like Rio or Japan, even Wembley bits looks better than in DVD. There are a lots of good gigs waiting for his remaster and release!

Agree with y'all, leaving out the 2 soundtracks, The Cross/Barcelona was unfortunate. They showed Queen weren't totally defeated by the loss of focus. Dave Richard's recollection was amazing. Freddie's courage v humbling (sob...) With regards to Hot Space, it feels a rather easy explanation for what may be a complex chain of events and personal dynamics. Those who survive tell the tale, I guess.
