50 years of Queen on German TV

Hi everybody,

this Saturday German TV Station VOX will air an documentary about Queen which is called "We are the Champions - 50 years of Queen".

Given the title I assume that this exactly the same documentary they aired 10 years ago which was called "We are the Champions - 40 years of Queen" :-)

Anyway, I will watch it...

cheers

Yeah its always nice to watch Queen documentary's and remember the four of them when they were at there very best.
Anyway they were at the very top of there tree and made a name for themselves as Legends!

Is anyone able to record it?

Oh man, 2020 and still these bad VHS grainy footage stuff.

Anything interesting on the 40th anniversary one?

Ten years ago the most interesting parts for me were:

- extensive interview bits of Ratty
- coloured footage of TATDOOL behind the scenes
- new Roger interview bits

cheers

@Martin S Yeah Ratty always told his journey with Queen as honestly as he could and his book was a joy to read,
so many stories about Freddie and what he was like on tour on and off stage.

I guess this might be no more than an updated version including the last ten years.

Did anyone watch it?

I watched it. There was no new original video of the band but a new interview with Peter Hince and Mack. Also an interview with Roger which I have not seen in this length.Mack had a few juicy things to tell which was entertaining. Overall, the Queen story was not as sugar coated as was the case in older documentaries. For the first time in an official documentary they admitted that John suffered from depression over the whole time. The documentary was in German language which makes it unusable for most fans.

YV - Did John suffer from depression in the 1970s as well?

I wish they would subtitle so that we could see it. Some new material is always appreciated. That is interesting about Deacy, it makes sense.

Has there been some removal of posts on this thread?
