I see Netflix is working on a new documentary about Dire Straits:

Quote
Netflix has officially announced the release date for its highly anticipated documentary on Dire Straits, the legendary British rock band known for timeless hits such as Sultans of Swing, Money for Nothing, and Brothers in Arms. Titled Dire Straits: The Journey of a Rock Legacy, the documentary will premiere on October 15, 2025.

The film will provide an in-depth look at the band’s rise to fame, chronicling their formation in 1977, their meteoric success in the 1980s, and the eventual disbandment in the mid-1990s. It promises exclusive interviews with key members, including frontman and lead guitarist Mark Knopfler, bassist John Illsley, and other former bandmates. Additionally, rare archival footage, behind-the-scenes recordings, and never-before-seen performances will be featured.

Maybe I'll be proved wrong but I expect this is clickbait AI bollocks.

It is fake indeed. The same thing about the David Gilmour documentary a few months ago. It was mentioned on his fanwebsite (not official site) that it was fake news

Let’s face it, we all got tricked into thinking the Henrik Hansen documentary would be released at some point.
