It's the top item under prog shows and tours.
 
(There's probably a slight delay before it appears, due to caching, but I can see it there now.)

Hawkwind: Do Not Panic
BBC Four
Fri 30 Mar, 21:00 - 22:00 60 mins

Told for the first time, the inside story of Hawkwind, one of Britain's wildest acid rock bands. They emerged from the Ladbroke Grove underground at the end of the 1960s, trailing th e radicalism of the counter-culture in their wake, and have been a direct influence on punk, metal, dance and rave - as well as pioneering multimedia rock shows with their legendary Space Ritual tour, and leading the free festival scene from its birth to its apogee at the last Stonehenge in 1984.

Unruly, anarchic, and often at war with themselves, Hawkwind are one of the last great outsider bands. Although the testimony of guitarist and founder member Dave Brock isn't present, the film includes interviews with some of the band's enduring legends, including bassist Lemmy, writer Michael Moorcock, founder members Terry Ollis, Nik Turner and Mick Slattery, former managers Doug Smith and Jeff Dexter, leading rock critic Nick Kent and broadcaster and super-fan Matthew Wright.

Acid rock? And no Dave Brock? Hmmmmmm.

It seems, from what I hear, that it's all ex-Hawks that are taking part - the current band aren't involved!

And, talking about ex-Hawks, Dumpy is in the news (well, in Lincolnshire's Boston Today) !
