Night 2
Back for a second night, Keith Richards takes over the controls of BBC FOUR for his Lost Weekend. As he curates his ‘pirate broadcast', viewers are invited to join him across the night for an extraordinary televisual journey...
In the hours between dusk and dawn, when Keith is normally awake - viewers will journey through twilight hours with Keith and his personally selected programme choices. As well as hand-picking all the shows, he also features between them in an intimate and in-depth interview, specially filmed for the weekend by Julien Temple, making this a unique television experience for viewers.
His choices tonight include the film noir I Walked with A Zombie, Italian classic The Bicycle Thieves, and Julien Temple's iconic film London: The Modern Babylon. There will also be cartoons and comedies, and viewers will see rare archive music performances from Buddy Holly, an exceptional Johnny Cash broadcast from 1968, plus extraordinary archive of Jimi Hendrix with Keith.
In the interview, broadcast across the night between the programmes, Keith gives his musings on being nocturnal and watching many dawns break. He talks about how his background has helped him navigate being part of the establishment. On music, Keith talks about how he squares his rock n roll image with family life and why he chose the guitar over other instruments, and he reveals how he wrote Satisfaction - one of the most successful rock n roll songs of all time.
From 7pm through to 4am, the audience will see some brilliant television and spend a unique night with one of the most famous and intriguing people in the world. Lost Weekend continues on Sunday night.
