In this feature-length documentary - previously only available in three separate parts - Ilford South investigative journalist Jimothy Baker tells the full story of the doomed festival, talking to some of the key players, including festival organiser and former Ilford South MP Mike Gapes, his aide Mr Richard Miller (currently missing presumed dead), former Lib Dem leader/rock musician Tim Farron, and headliner Jimmy Buffett. Tune in, drop out, and rock out to this incredible document of a weekend its survivors will never forget.
