London band Bush seem to have it all. Their million-selling albums have made them superstars. Last year they played to more people in America than any other band and they have sold 12 million records - easily outstripping Oasis in the US charts.

This film follows Bush on tour in Britain and in America to uncover the secret of their US success and looks at their struggle for recognition in the UK. Last in the present series.
