The Life and Lyrics of Kirsty MacColl

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

Documentary tribute to the singer-songwriter who died in a freak boating accident last year. The daughter of choreographer Jean Newlove and folk singer Ewan MacColl, she will be best remembered as the foil to a drunken Shane MacGowan on the Pogues Christmas hit Fairytale of New York. Contributions come from her partner James Knight, her mother and brother, and a host of music industry stars, including Bono, Billy Bragg, Johnny Marr and Janice Long.
