Creation Stories
6.1/10
The true story of the rise and fall of Creation Records and its infamous founder Alan McGee; the man responsible for supplying the “Brit Pop” soundtrack to the ‘90s, a decade of cultural renaissance known as Cool Britannia. From humble beginnings to Downing Street soirées, from dodging bailiffs to releasing multi-platinum albums, Creation had it all. Breakdowns, bankruptcy, fights and friendships… and not forgetting the music. Featuring some of the greatest records you have ever heard, we follow Alan through a drug-fuelled haze of music and mayhem, as his rock’n’roll dream brings the world Oasis, Primal Scream, and other generation-defining bands.

As Frank’s life becomes more embroiled with Cissie’s he goes on a mission to track down the guilty men.
Coping with Cupid
5.3/10
Three blondes from another planet land on earth to conduct research into romantic love
Skids Live 2010
In March 2010 Punk Legends The Skids reformed for the last time to play the famous Alhambra Theatre in Scotland. The gig was the culmination of a months retrospective celebrating the music, films and words of Skids front-man Richard Jobson. A sold out gig was caught on film by the team Jobson uses to shoot his movies. The result is a high energy performance that captures everything that was great about one of the best loved bands to come out of the Punk/New wave era. The film is inter-cut with an interview with Jobson on stage by crime novelist Ian Rankin.
