Sorry if this is posted elsewhere, but it seems tonight on BBC4 there is a tv show about siblings in bands and David knopfler is interviewed.  They also show the playlist for the show and theres a few DS songs.  Could be interesting.

Yeah repeat, I recorded this and traded with quite a few people when it first aired, 2005 I believe.

It was being shown as part of a Ray Davies night, maybe the new BBC 4 doc will be shown as part of an MK night, along with a screening of the full Montreux show...

That's about as likely as Mark reforming DS with David and playing Tunnel of Love and going out on the road again all before the end of the year! :o

I dunno, they've done, for example, the Steve Winwood night with a doc about Steve and then the live show with EC from Madison Square Gardens, Montreux is a huge event so I'm hopeful.

One of the mods (can't remember who) received a PM from teh BBC re the documentary, perhaps whoever it was can get in touch and ask what is planned.
