    Wow... would I love to see that. Any chance of a British screening? C'mon, someone must have the footage to do this!

      I'm assuming the "BBC documentary" refers to the South Bank Show?

      But I totally agree, they should arrange to show the concert on British TV.

        Pro Shot? (Score:1)
        I hope they show a pro shot version of the concert since it will be shown at a theater and not the bootleg version of it. Any ideas on which version they will show? If it does happen to be a pro shot version please let me know so I can get a copy of it somehow.

              the smiths final concert... (Score:0)
              i've seen the video of this concert which was shot from the mezzanine... the picture wasn't the greatest, but it's definitely one of their best performances.

              btw, the 'south bank' documentary is a must-see for every smiths fan.

                This will be a nightmare, as there is no such thing as a pro-shot taping of this show. While there may be one in an archive somewhere, the only version that's ever been available is a crappy, mezzanine-shot, nearly black and white, audience recording. Save your money.

                  Or alternatively, come along, hang out with some nice people, and enjoy the show and the documentary, and stop being such a killjoy.

                  You decide!
