Harry Enfield and Paul Whitehouse tell the true story of Britain’s evolution over the last century through the life of the BBC, by turning complete fictions into a staggering array of hard facts.

Live Without a Net is a live concert video of Van Halen recorded in New Haven, Connecticut in 1986, and released the following year. It was of their performance on August 27, 1986 at New Haven's Veterans Memorial Coliseum. The 90-minute release removed a few songs from the full performance. While the band attempted to record the previous night, audio problems prevented it from being used, although some video footage from that night would later surface in music videos. The concerts were part of the 5150 Tour, supporting the album of the same name, Van Halen's first with lead singer Sammy Hagar.

A performance from Sheila E. filmed live at the Warfield Theatre in San Francisco, CA. Featuring a special appearance by Prince and the Revolution.

On June 7th, 1986, Prince celebrated his 28th birthday by performing for a packed crowd at Detroit’s Cobo Arena. The show was filmed and edited for later broadcast in Europe and Japan as promotion for his then-forthcoming 1986 Parade tour, which hit eight countries in less than a month. The Parade tour never officially hit the United States, with Prince deciding to test the show out on audiences in a handful of cities across the country before taking it abroad. Fortunately, videotapes of the Detroit show have been circulating amongst hardcore Prince collectors for years and have found their way onto the internet so you can witness what was arguably Prince’s funkiest tour to date.

Madonna Live: The Virgin Tour contains the concert footage from The Virgin Tour, filmed at Cobo Arena in Detroit, Michigan on May 25, 1985. Madonna launched her first major concert tour in support of her album Like a Virgin, and this video captures the Material Girl on-stage, baring her famous tummy and dancing up a storm as she belts out a set of hits from her first two albums.
