Documentary on the Band

Part of the "Jukebox Heroes" series Mark Lamarr narrates this profile of Welsh pop group Badfinger. Few bands have attracted tragedy like Badfinger. From a promising start as a late 60's pop act, where they were part of the Beatles' Apple label and had a hit written exclusively for them by Paul McCartney, through to the messy legal problems that dogged their later years and led to the suicides of band members Pete Ham and Tom Evans, their's was an unfortunate fall from grace.

The show includes interviews with Bill Collins, the group's manager, the former girlfriend of Pete Ham, Beverley Tucker, and the former wife of Tommy Evans, Marianne Evans.
